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. ,
