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.
