omega point         
                          
                                          
 can you feel  it?  behind things, inside 
      things, something is happening.     
     something between nothing and the    
           collapse of reality.           
                                          
 the objects  themselves do  not  change. 
 the  physicality of  a person stays  the 
                   same.                  
                                          
 but   items  have   relations  with  one 
 another,  and  here  is  the revolution. 
     the relationships congregate, the    
 networks become meshes, and they  spread 
 out  like  heat  nets  over kale  farms. 
                                          
 things become  part  of  bigger  things. 
 people  become part  of  bigger  actors. 
 often  too big to be seen - but  perhaps 
                  felt...                 
                                          
 lets  walk backwards trough the  sludge! 
 what's an  animal? a collective of cells 
        with a single mind (kinda)        
 what's  a cell?  actually  in this sense 
 it's  a collective of  cells and  lesser 
  molecular machines ("proteins" et al)   
           and other fragments            
                                          
 what's  a  molecule?  just  a  bunch  of 
 atoms bound (fey concept) together by  a 
          set of ineffable rules          
 what's  an  atom?  (things  are  getting 
 alien  at  this  point)  well  basically 
               it's an "orb"              
                                          
                                   
                                   
                                   
                                          
 we're gonna lose ourselves  in it. maybe 
 we   have   been    for   some    while.
