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.
