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.
