,
a cave company, a magician company. %
^ sharpest knife, cutest knife. %
,
we will grow humans in pea-pods
shimmering sound-card emergence,
something there on the shore of
turtle beach. the primordial soup of
^ the digital, waves in dithering of %
third-rate dac's, caressing the sand,
bringing things up from the depths of ,
the circuit. and there, deposited: the
first seed crystal of artificial
intelligence.
this changes everything, of course.
######################################## ,
the company is named for it's first ^
product, the orbital mirror, both a
passive sentinel and an active torch:
, set to it's widest configuration it
, will light up a whole city at night, ,
and at its narrowest it becomes a laser
to cut through mountain and metal. ,
,
still unsold prototypes by the time
when that something was found on that
, beach, now the mirrors are all used to
beam energy at different mirr
implements, as a rather static and
boring power source. (and subtle threat
of violence.)
^
########################################
the ai is a coral. they grow it
(crystal oil, lead glass, gentle laser
^ curtains) only to carve it apart and
section it. to become conditioned,
refractured, grown again. deliciously
^ honed. mirr sinks further below the
% surface.
whispers now, about featherbite... is
, she a real person? or is this the mirr
ai, being unleashed upon the youth? and
another conspiracy theory about there
not actually being any human employees
left.
,
in the meantime, dubious creations.
cerberus bodies are born. ,
