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. ,
