£¨¨£¨¨¨£¨¨ there is another company. a climbing ¨¨£¨£¨£¨£¨
£¨££¨¨££¨£ and penetrating vine. it's in the rocky ¨£££££££££
££¨£¨£¨££¨ plains, it's inside the hills, it's £¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨££££££¨££ deep below. glistening silver burrows, £¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨£
£¨¨¨¨¨££¨¨ red-pink logo, unclear nationality, £¨¨¨¨¨¨¨££
£¨¨¨¨£¨£¨£ veiled motives. £¨¨¨¨¨¨£¨¨
¨ 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. ¨
