@¨¨¨¨@@¨¨¨ there is another company. a climbing ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨@@@
¨¨@@¨¨¨¨@@ and penetrating vine. it's in the rocky @@@@@@¨¨@@
¨¨¨¨¨@@¨¨@ plains, it's inside the hills, it's ¨@@@@¨¨¨¨¨
@@@@¨¨¨¨¨¨ deep below. glistening silver burrows, ¨¨@@¨¨@@@@
@@@¨¨@@@@@ red-pink logo, unclear nationality, @¨¨¨¨¨¨@@@

¨ a cave company, a magician company.
sharpest knife, cutest knife.
¨
we will grow humans in pea-pods
¨ shimmering sound-card emergence,
something there on the shore of ¨
% turtle beach. the primordial soup of ¨
the digital, waves in dithering of
third-rate dac's, caressing the sand, ¨
¨ bringing things up from the depths of
the circuit. and there, deposited: the
first seed crystal of artificial
intelligence. %
¨
this changes everything, of course.
¨ ########################################
% the company is named for it's first
product, the orbital mirror, both a ¨
passive sentinel and an active torch:
set to it's widest configuration it
¨ will light up a whole city at night,
and at its narrowest it becomes a laser
to cut through mountain and metal.
¨
still unsold prototypes by the time
: when that something was found on that
beach, now the mirrors are all used to
: beam energy at different mirr
implements, as a rather static and
boring power source. (and subtle threat
of violence.)
: ########################################
¨
the ai is a coral. they grow it ¨
: (crystal oil, lead glass, gentle laser :
curtains) only to carve it apart and
section it. to become conditioned,
refractured, grown again. deliciously
honed. mirr sinks further below the
surface. %
whispers now, about featherbite... is
¨ she a real person? or is this the mirr %
: ai, being unleashed upon the youth? and
: another conspiracy theory about there
not actually being any human employees
left. ¨
in the meantime, dubious creations.
cerberus bodies are born. ¨
