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.
