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.
