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.
