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.
