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.
