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.
