¨&&&&&&&&¨ 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. ¨
