¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤ 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. ¨
