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.
