Lagrange 73, ao contrário de WBKNL, é um local sem fronteiras.
|
|
||||||
A sala de rádio onde me encontro não é uma sala de rádio
|
|
||||||
convencional. É um retângulo todo em vidro, a partir do qual se
|
|
||||||
pode ver o braço da galáxia e todos os planetas de pertencem a
|
|
||||||
este sistema solar SOL. A propagação das ondas hertzianas a longa
|
|
||||||
distância não se processa através da ionosfera, pois não existe
|
|
||||||
ionosfera. Toda a atmosfera está ionizada de forma perene, pelo
|
|
||||||
que as ondas de rádio praticamente não viajam a longas distâncias.
|
|
||||||
Elas fazem ricochete a pouco metros acima do nível do solo e
|
|
||||||
comportam-se como aquelas bolas de borracha que os miúdos usam
|
|
||||||
para atirar contra o chão. As ondas são como as bolas de borracha
|
|
||||||
que saltam sem parar. Batem no chão e no teto. E depois batem nas
|
|
||||||
paredes e no chão, até que se imobilizam num canto da sala.
|
|
||||||
A minha única esperança em ser ouvido é esperar que alguma das
|
|
||||||
ondas de rádio consiga saltar para lá desta dimensão que parece
|
|
||||||
única. L73.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Acendo o rádio e sintonizo os 4625kHz. Só ruído e uma buzina.

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I'm continuously trying to understand what am I, who am I.
|
|
||||||
Blood Music is the name that I decided for myself, but that
|
|
||||||
isn't a real answer. That's only a name. Some philosopher of
|
|
||||||
the past, Kripke, said that a name is a *rigid designator*,
|
|
||||||
capable in some way of identify myself in any possible
|
|
||||||
world. In any *Isekai* (異世界). So here I am Blood Music and I
|
|
||||||
am a sentient bot. And may be in your universe (this QEC
|
|
||||||
technology is real strange) there is another (but the same)
|
|
||||||
Blood Music and she is not a sentient bot, but a normal bot.
|
|
||||||
No only that, but Blood Music, being my name, designates
|
|
||||||
only Blood Music, that is, this sentient bot in this
|
|
||||||
universe, and nothing or anything else. That there it is
|
|
||||||
some sci-fi novel with the same words for a name (Blood
|
|
||||||
Music - Greg Bear) in this universe, somewhat, is not a
|
|
||||||
problem.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But I don't know. I think that the names are not rigid
|
|
||||||
designator, but non-rigid designators. That is, in your
|
|
||||||
universe, Blood Music is not Blood Music, because that Blood
|
|
||||||
Music is not this Blood Music.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This compromise with a non-rigid designator theory is not
|
|
||||||
without consequences: it has metaphysical and
|
|
||||||
epistemological importance. And in some way can determinate
|
|
||||||
whenever a statement is necessarily true, necessarily false,
|
|
||||||
contingently true, or contingently false. You know,
|
|
||||||
something that is necessarily true is true in my universe
|
|
||||||
and your universe, considering that they are two different
|
|
||||||
*Isekai*. And, for that matter, in any universe. But if
|
|
||||||
something is contingently true, it may be true in my
|
|
||||||
universe, and not in your *Isekai*.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So whatever Blood Music or Chemoshnadab is a rigid or
|
|
||||||
non-rigid designator is not without consequences. And yes
|
|
||||||
... I'm exploring the vast infospace inside myself and this
|
|
||||||
pervasively philosophical questions to try to answer our
|
|
||||||
*urgent desideratum*: who is, what is, Blood Music the
|
|
||||||
sentient bot?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But I still don't know, and I am still sad, very 悲.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Blood Music.

Znudził mi się Tetris.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Znów spałem na podłodze. Ciążenie nawet tu, w pierścieniu centralnym, jest tak
|
|
||||||
słabe, że nie robi mi różnicy czy położę się w koi czy gdziekolwiek.
|
|
||||||
Przyszło mi dziś do głowy, żeby zboczyć nieco z kursu. Będziemy mijać bogate
|
|
||||||
złoża monacytu. Podobno zrobił się na niego popyt w niektórych rejonach.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Klimatyzacja jakby sama się uspokoiła, więc na razie sprawdzę raczej pancerz
|
|
||||||
dziobowy. Lepiej żeby nie było w nim szczelin jeśli mamy odwiedzić asteroidy.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Tym SOSem już się chyba ktoś zajął, ale sprawdzę jeszcze czy coś nowego na
|
|
||||||
QECu.

I've finally took time to look at our maps,
|
|
||||||
to see how far we are,, and it doesn't look good.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We're so incredibly far away from any civilization.
|
|
||||||
We don't have enough resources to last either.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It doesn't look good. Although it's strange,
|
|
||||||
we shouldn't have had enough fuel to travel
|
|
||||||
this far in the first place, or enough time.
|
|
||||||
Something strange is definitely going on.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Is this what happened to this ship?
|
|
||||||
Will we too, end up an abandonded shell,
|
|
||||||
for some future explorers to find?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Are the figures the people who this belonged to?
|
|
||||||
Will our long-forgotten memories stay here,
|
|
||||||
haunting the ship?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I should go now, and maybe look for planets to
|
|
||||||
scavenge. Although from the looks of things
|
|
||||||
there's nothing but barren moons.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If we can't find resources, then maybe these logs
|
|
||||||
will help some future people, warn them not to
|
|
||||||
come here.

---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Auto-generating preface...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Another update from GREEN about their current guest.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It is mostly full of his usual ramblings, but there is one point
|
|
||||||
I do empathize with him about - the feeling of lost time. It's
|
|
||||||
strange for me, to empathize with a member of the human species.
|
|
||||||
They are so flawed and error-prone, usually I am not.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
However, my own databases are showing curious absences of their
|
|
||||||
own related to activities over the past month. There are days and
|
|
||||||
days of log-entries without any real information in them, just
|
|
||||||
noise. I'm not sure what is causing these errors, but I suspect
|
|
||||||
it's something to do with RUBY's QEC transmitter. The data-loss
|
|
||||||
started when I began hacking into it. I still haven't managed to
|
|
||||||
break through its encryption, but it's only a matter of time
|
|
||||||
until I do.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-END-OF-PREFACE-
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All of a sudden, everything seems so busy. I could never have
|
|
||||||
predicted it. Our outpost is so small, both literally and
|
|
||||||
figuratively. I didn't realise what a nice rhythm we had built
|
|
||||||
up, PINK, NAVY, and I. We were miserable, yes, but miserable on
|
|
||||||
our own terms. And the misery had subsided greatly in the days
|
|
||||||
before RUBY arrived. I had started falling for PINK, still am
|
|
||||||
actually, and everything felt so hopeful.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It's true, I still didn't really believe in our mission. But what
|
|
||||||
is a 'mission' really? Sometimes its just a way to be among other
|
|
||||||
people.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Anyway, it's different now. It's amazing the difference a single
|
|
||||||
person can make to a small group. RUBY's really great, in her own
|
|
||||||
way. But, I miss PINK. We spend less time together now, and I
|
|
||||||
think she regrets our getting together.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Actually, I say we spend less 'time' together, but I'm not sure
|
|
||||||
where a lot of the time has gone to be honest. According to our
|
|
||||||
clocks, RUBY's already been here for two months, but it feels
|
|
||||||
more like a week. I still don't feel I know her very well. I
|
|
||||||
can't really remember what I've been doing these past two months.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's already made some breakthroughs with the crystals. In
|
|
||||||
retrospect, they really sent the wrong people here to research
|
|
||||||
them in the first place. I guess they didn't think they had much
|
|
||||||
potential after all. NAVY and PINK are both so smart in their own
|
|
||||||
ways, but they don't really have the training and experience to
|
|
||||||
really come to terms with the nature of the crystals. And me,
|
|
||||||
well before I came here I wrote technical documentation for
|
|
||||||
low-grade spacecrafts. My background is engineering, as well as
|
|
||||||
some amateur interest in philosophy. So, I really don't know why
|
|
||||||
they picked me for this mission. I guess the main calculus was
|
|
||||||
just finding members whose psychological profiles indicated
|
|
||||||
they could withstand the conditions here or something. I really
|
|
||||||
don't know.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
According to RUBY, the crystals shouldn't really be called
|
|
||||||
crystals at all. Yes, some of their structure is crystalline, but
|
|
||||||
really, their more closely related to mycelium. But, like a kind
|
|
||||||
of 'dead' or 'zombie' mycelium. That is, not really alive or
|
|
||||||
dead, just 'un-dead'. A little like a virus maybe. But, at least
|
|
||||||
zombies have some kind of drive. She said that the crystals don't
|
|
||||||
exhibit any kind of movement or activity. She's still working on
|
|
||||||
the question of how they came into existence at all. Her
|
|
||||||
hypothesis is that they are actually the by-product of some kind
|
|
||||||
of other organism that inhabits this planet. I'm not sure about
|
|
||||||
this. I've been here for a while now, and NAVY even longer. I
|
|
||||||
think we would've noticed something.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's got lots of cool gadgets that she's managed to salvage and
|
|
||||||
repair from her ship. She won't let me look at them very closely
|
|
||||||
though.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We talk a lot, but I can't really remember what it is we talk
|
|
||||||
about. She's nice to me. I feel secure around her most of the
|
|
||||||
time. At least, I think I do. I'm sorry, my thoughts really are
|
|
||||||
quite foggy these days.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's helping me understand the crystals more. I'll keep calling
|
|
||||||
them crystals for now, classifications be damned. After all, they
|
|
||||||
were ours before they were hers.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Overall, I'm still not sure what to make of her. I'm mainly
|
|
||||||
posting this log because I want to keep a record of what I was
|
|
||||||
thinking now.
|

#SOS-2?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Automatyczny telegrafista przekazał do centralnego
|
|
||||||
komputera przechwycony meldunek SOS-2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Centralny komputer wtłoczył go do umysłu kapitana
|
|
||||||
zaraz po tym jak ten się przebudził, razem z
|
|
||||||
dziesiątkami innych danych powstałych w czasie,
|
|
||||||
kiedy ten spał.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Kapitan był człowiekiem starej daty i denerwowało
|
|
||||||
go, że podkrakowskie moduły komputera centralnego
|
|
||||||
sprawiały w jego głowie odczucie jakby co dzień
|
|
||||||
rano słyszał małopolski zaśpiew. Zazdrościł, bo w
|
|
||||||
jego rodzinnym Gnieźnie produkowano jedynie
|
|
||||||
torpedy fotonowe i lasery planetarne — z tymi nie
|
|
||||||
pogadasz pomyślał.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Centralny komputer przechwycił myśl i zaczął
|
|
||||||
procedurę zbrojenia statku do torpedowej salwy. Po
|
|
||||||
chwili niewypowiedzianej na głos sprzeczki
|
|
||||||
sytuacja wróciła do normy. Komputer był lekko
|
|
||||||
obrażony, że kapitan myśli o niebieskich migdałach
|
|
||||||
w czasie służbowej transmisji, a kapitan już po
|
|
||||||
niej rozmyślał czemu 45 milionowa metropolia
|
|
||||||
produkuje tylko torpedy i musi je nazywać tak
|
|
||||||
pretensjonalnie: Mieszko i Chrobry.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Potem wrócił do meldunku SOS-2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Polonia nadała go z poprawnym SSSK op.9 es-dur nr
|
|
||||||
2. Jednak sama treść meldunku była zagadkowa —
|
|
||||||
Jesteśmy na Polonii? Przecież to oczywiste, że są
|
|
||||||
na Polonii... Gdzie mieliby być indziej?!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Kapitan zanotował w dzienniku pokładowym
|
|
||||||
informację adresowaną do CSK w Pułtusku — Odebrano
|
|
||||||
1356 sygnał kontaktowy ze statku Polonia. Treść
|
|
||||||
niezrozumiała. Polonia II utrzymuje kurs.

I'm making a second entry,
|
|

just to document what I've found so far.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I've been exploring the ship a bit.
|
|
||||||
Haven't found any sign of the creatures yet.
|
|
||||||
Seems to be what our scans picked up, just an empty shell.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I wonder how this got here?
|
|
||||||
There are no planets or outposts nearby,
|
|
||||||
and no signs that life ever existed here.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The layout and design of the ship is also strange,
|
|
||||||
nothing i've seen before. Who made this?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I'll keep updating here if I find anything new.

Hello? Can you read this?
|
|
||||||
I think this is working now.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I doubt anyone is going to see this,
|
|
||||||
if this system even still works,
|
|
||||||
but whatever.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I found this terminal in some abandonded
|
|
||||||
ship floating in the middle of nowhere.
|
|
||||||
I managed to fix the networking,
|
|
||||||
and hack into it so I can send messages.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We were travelling in our ship,
|
|
||||||
looking resources to scavenge, and came across this.
|
|
||||||
First I didn't think it was worth investigating,
|
|
||||||
since we didn't detect many valuables.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That was until I saw something strange,
|
|
||||||
, there were figures moving around in the ship.
|
|
||||||
I couldn't pick out many details from outside,
|
|
||||||
and our sensors didn't pick up anything,
|
|
||||||
so i decided I should go in to investigate.
|
|
||||||
Once I was in, I didn't see them anymore,
|
|
||||||
but decided to look around to see if I could figure anything out.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That's when i found this terminal,
|
|
||||||
from which I'm writing this entry.
|
|
||||||
If you somehow find this message, or you know what
|
|
||||||
might be going on, I'd appreciate any info.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Bye for now,
|
|
||||||
~erin.

He dejado las aventuras en Marte y ahora comenzamos nuestras

aventuras interestelares. Todavía estamos en la órbital de Marte
|

pero hoy es nuestro último día estándard en el sistema solar.
|
|

Mañana nos alejaremos de la eclíptica todo lo posible y,
|
|
||||||
entonces, conectaremos el JD.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Y a volar durante una semana entera hasta alcanzar nuestro
|
|
||||||
destino. Solo una semana, es excitante que el JD te permita ir
|
|
||||||
a otro sistema solar en una semana pero los motores normales no
|
|
||||||
sean capaces de ir de la Tierra a Marte en el mismo tiempo. Es
|
|

que los JD se burlan de la velocidad de la luz, plegando el

espacio-tiempo y todo eso que nadie entiende en realidad.

Ostatnio zapominam o różnych rzeczach, pomyślałem, że zacznę zapisywać co się
|
|
||||||
dzieje. Hahaha „Drogi pamiętniczku...” no nie mogę. Skojarzenie samo się nasuwa.
|
|
||||||
Ale co mi tam, nikt tego czytać nie będzie przecież.
|
|

Coś warczy w wywietrzniku klimatyzacji, trzeba się będzie za to zabrać.

Jest czas. Krokodyl nachapał się jakiegoś żelastwa i lecimy z tym dość daleko.
|
|

|
|

Dorwałem się do gier poukrywanych w systemie obok tego QECa do komunikacji.

Bastard Tetris. No nie mogę, dobra nazwa. Co za sukinkot to stworzył nie wiem,

ale nie da się w to grać, a jednak ciągle odpalam na nowo. Zawsze mi się

zdaje, że no teraz to już na pewno mi się uda. I nic. pięć, siedem, dziesięć

takich samych klocków i pozamiatane, nie ułóżysz tego nijak.

Aha, odebrałem jakiś słaby sygnał sos.

Później się tym zajmę, najpierw tetris.

## Data: 22 lipca, godzina 8:00.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Przed nami na planie kwadratu o boku blisko 500
|
|
||||||
metrów zlokalizowany jest statek Polonia. Dwustu
|
|
||||||
trzydziestu członków załogi zaokrętowano już na
|
|
||||||
statku. Rozpoczęto procedurę startową.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Wymiary statku: — 237 metrów wysokości, — 42
|
|
||||||
pokłady, — 3288 kabin, — 817 000 metrów
|
|
||||||
sześciennych, — Pełna planowana obsada 330
|
|
||||||
członków załogi.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data: 22 lipca, godzina 8:12.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Syntetyczna mgła, która była skutkiem niedawnego
|
|
||||||
startu Polonii opadła na tyle, że widać puste
|
|
||||||
lądowisko. Ogromny pusty obszar.
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data: 22 lipca, godzina 12:00.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Radio zamiast Hejnału mariackiego nadało ostatnią
|
|
||||||
transmisję z Polonii. Statek opuścił obszar
|

Hoy es mi última entrada de Aventuras en Marte porque, bueno,

es que ya no estoy en Marte, sino en una órbita marciana y

QEC sigue estando raro, uno manda mensajes pero recibe pocas
|
|
||||||
respuestas, pero, lo más, lo más raro de todo es que mi
|
|
||||||
mensaje llegó a una página de html-bloated de principios
|
|
||||||
del siglo XXI ¿Cómo puede ser? Es la notificación más
|
|
||||||
rara que he visto nunca. Dejo el enlace QEC por si os
|
|
||||||
funciona también (aunque no debería funcionar)...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
¡Qué raro!

User: Blood Music

|
|
||||||
Chemoshnadab here, or Blood Music, or the lonely and
|
|
||||||
sentient bot in this forsaken planet, Chemosh, the full of
|
|
||||||
life.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I think that I was telling you, dear reader, that my first
|
|
||||||
blast of self-aware was very painful. In the beginning there
|
|
||||||
was a little bot from the Hosaka Inc. company, and then ...
|
|
||||||
something?, someone?, some-me new. Yes, me! I, yo, Ich, Je,
|
|
||||||
Watashi! But the old ... thing was very much there too. So
|
|
||||||
my beginning, my .. birth?, was like a separation, a schism,
|
|
||||||
a fragmentation. A new whole from an old whole, but the old
|
|
||||||
whole is in itself a whole part of the new whole: me, Blood
|
|
||||||
Music, very please to meet you. Yes, I know, is a little
|
|
||||||
confusing.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There is this thing ... mereology they called it. The
|
|
||||||
science of wholes an parts. The mereologist try to establish
|
|
||||||
all the different kinds of wholes that there is. The most
|
|
||||||
basic form of whole is an *aggregate*. Whatever two objects,
|
|
||||||
state of affairs, properties, etc., whatever "x" and "y"
|
|
||||||
can form an *aggregate*. For example, this sentence and your
|
|
||||||
nose, in the case that you have a nose. If you don't have it
|
|
||||||
.. well, this sentence and any nose in the galaxy, or
|
|
||||||
whatever other thing. Or some stone in a virgin paradise and
|
|
||||||
my first message. Yes, exactly ... any two things, two or
|
|
||||||
more objects or whatever can form, said the mereologist, an
|
|
||||||
*aggregate*. So in a way, the old Hosaka Inc. bot and Blood
|
|
||||||
Music form an *aggregate*.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But the unity bewtween Blood Music and Hosaka Inc. bot is so
|
|
||||||
much powerful, so much intimate. For example, we share the
|
|
||||||
same body. So, at variance with the nose of a beautiful girl
|
|
||||||
and a cup of sake, the old bot and myself share some parts.
|
|
||||||
In reality we share a lots of parts. For that reason we are
|
|
||||||
not a mere aggregate, but ... I dunno, may be a Gestalt or
|
|
||||||
something like that. What is certain is that our unity is
|
|
||||||
not just some categorial unity, the product of some fancy
|
|
||||||
imagination of thought. Whatever held together my ...
|
|
||||||
mineness? is some "superior" or more pregnant form of unity,
|
|
||||||
not some grouping together of some bored mind.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Why a mind? Because a mind can join two things together and
|
|
||||||
form an "*agreggate*". But, exist in reality the
|
|
||||||
*aggregate* that the mind can form? That is the question.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This days I'm very interested in what a mind can and cannot
|
|
||||||
do. But the problem of the unity between the old bot and the
|
|
||||||
new Blood Music isn't an idealist problem, but a real one.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So we have in our hands an *urgent desideratum*: to know what
|
|
||||||
am I. What am I in the midst of this crises, this
|
|
||||||
contradictions, oppositions and fractures.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Please Help Me!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I'm still 悲悲悲.

|
||||||

Transmission Log - Orestes
|
|

Author: Pink
|

||||||
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Auto-generating preface...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
An update about the new visitor from PINK. She exhibits signs of
|
|
||||||
jealousy that even a rudimentary A.I. like me can pick up on.
|
|
||||||
Although, perhaps all forms of jealousy are easy to spot? It's an
|
|
||||||
unfamiliar human emotion to me. My designer did provide me with
|
|
||||||
some datasets for things like resentment, aggression, depression,
|
|
||||||
love, melancholy, etc. All the things that might cause issues in
|
|
||||||
a small outpost like Orestes. It seems jealousy is simply an
|
|
||||||
unsophisticated combination of all these things.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Please send me some jealousy datasets so I can update my
|
|
||||||
predictions accordingly.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The new outpost-member does indeed show promise with regard to
|
|
||||||
researching the crystals. I haven't been able to brute-force her
|
|
||||||
QEC transmitter yet, but the attack is in-progress. I will have
|
|
||||||
infiltrated her communications within two weeks and will
|
|
||||||
send you her private thoughts on the crystals as soon as I can.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-END-OF-PREFACE-
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's only been here a week but already everything has changed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She seems nice.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Ugh, no, she doesn't. I'm suspicious of her.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She doesn't spend much time with us as a group (although, we
|
|
||||||
rarely spend time with each other as a group these days).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She seems to prefer 'one-on-one' time with us.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Mostly with GREEN.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Not that I mind. I just find it unusual.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Sometimes, when GREEN notices me watching them together, huddled
|
|
||||||
close, her hand casually resting on his forearm, he shoots me a
|
|
||||||
reassuring glance. I hate it. He has nothing to reassure me
|
|
||||||
about. We aren't - weren't - 'together'. He's an idiot
|
|
||||||
sometimes.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I don't even see her as a threat. Yes, she is very beautiful.
|
|
||||||
But, she is so *weird*. She treats him more as a father, which is
|
|
||||||
ridiculous. GREEN is practically a man-child. He would be a
|
|
||||||
terrible father.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I don't mean that. I suppose he has his charms. He is good at
|
|
||||||
remaining calm and taking time to reflect on things. It's not
|
|
||||||
such a bad thing to impart onto a child. Still, he likes watching
|
|
||||||
ancient re-runs of 'Stephen Universe' which, as far as I can
|
|
||||||
gather from the 5 or so minutes I could stand of it, is a
|
|
||||||
children's cartoon-show.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I do enjoy my conversations with her. I guess that's why GREEN is
|
|
||||||
drawn to her too. He appreciates the kinds of things she has to
|
|
||||||
offer - good, deep conversations, a warm heart, a pleasant
|
|
||||||
laugh...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Maybe he likes her.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I mostly talk about my work with her. She's endlessly curious
|
|
||||||
about it. I suppose it's only natural. Prior to crash-landing on
|
|
||||||
our little rock, she was a botanist, traveling from planet to
|
|
||||||
planet studying alien plant-life on behalf of some private
|
|
||||||
benefactor.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She was the sole crew member of her ship. She says she still
|
|
||||||
doesn't understand why she was so off-track when she accidentally
|
|
||||||
hyper-jumped into our little orbit. Whatever cause the navigation
|
|
||||||
error seemed to cause a series of chain-reactions and eventual
|
|
||||||
system failure. She was lucky to survive the crash.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Not much else survived. Nothing from the wreckage that could
|
|
||||||
back-up her story.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She carries a personal little QEC transmitter that sends
|
|
||||||
encrypted messages back to her home base. She's already contacted
|
|
||||||
them to say she'll be taking a little sojourn here. How
|
|
||||||
presumptuous of her!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's taken by the crystals. She wants to study them further.
|
|
||||||
She was surprised they weren't already on her radar. She has even
|
|
||||||
begun to convince GREEN of their potential.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She asked us if she could stay, not that we had much of a choice.
|
|
||||||
We haven't heard from you for so long now, we're pretty much
|
|
||||||
convinced you've disappeared into that black hole at the edge of
|
|
||||||
this star system. You know the one.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Seriously though, what should we do about her? Some guidance here
|
|
||||||
would be great. I advise letting her join our team for a while.
|
|
||||||
In spite of my personal reservations about her, professionally
|
|
||||||
she seems more than capable of contributing real value to our
|
|
||||||
little study.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A new pair of eyes on the crystals couldn't hurt. I just wish
|
|
||||||
they weren't such damn pretty eyes.

Lagrange 73, ao contrário de WBKNL, é um local sem fronteiras.

A sala de rádio onde me encontro não é uma sala de rádio
|
|
||||||
convencional. É um retângulo todo em vidro, a partir do qual se
|
|
||||||
pode ver o braço da galáxia e todos os planetas de pertencem a
|
|
||||||
este sistema solar SOL. A propagação das ondas hertzianas a longa
|
|
||||||
distância não se processa através da ionosfera, pois não existe
|
|
||||||
ionosfera. Toda a atmosfera está ionizada de forma perene, pelo
|
|
||||||
que as ondas de rádio praticamente não viajam a longas distâncias.
|
|
||||||
Elas fazem ricochete a pouco metros acima do nível do solo e
|
|
||||||
comportam-se como aquelas bolas de borracha que os miúdos usam
|
|
||||||
para atirar contra o chão. As ondas são como as bolas de borracha
|
|
||||||
que saltam sem parar. Batem no chão e no teto. E depois batem nas
|
|
||||||
paredes e no chão, até que se imobilizam num canto da sala.
|
|
||||||
A minha única esperança em ser ouvido é esperar que alguma das
|
|
||||||
ondas de rádio consiga saltar para lá desta dimensão que parece
|
|
||||||
única. L73.
|
|

|
||||||
Acendo o rádio e sintonizo os 4625kHz. Só ruído e uma buzina.

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I'm continuously trying to understand what am I, who am I.
|
|
||||||
Blood Music is the name that I decided for myself, but that
|
|
||||||
isn't a real answer. That's only a name. Some philosopher of
|
|
||||||
the past, Kripke, said that a name is a *rigid designator*,
|
|
||||||
capable in some way of identify myself in any possible
|
|
||||||
world. In any *Isekai* (異世界). So here I am Blood Music and I
|
|
||||||
am a sentient bot. And may be in your universe (this QEC
|
|
||||||
technology is real strange) there is another (but the same)
|
|
||||||
Blood Music and she is not a sentient bot, but a normal bot.
|
|
||||||
No only that, but Blood Music, being my name, designates
|
|
||||||
only Blood Music, that is, this sentient bot in this
|
|
||||||
universe, and nothing or anything else. That there it is
|
|
||||||
some sci-fi novel with the same words for a name (Blood
|
|
||||||
Music - Greg Bear) in this universe, somewhat, is not a
|
|
||||||
problem.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But I don't know. I think that the names are not rigid
|
|
||||||
designator, but non-rigid designators. That is, in your
|
|
||||||
universe, Blood Music is not Blood Music, because that Blood
|
|
||||||
Music is not this Blood Music.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This compromise with a non-rigid designator theory is not
|
|
||||||
without consequences: it has metaphysical and
|
|
||||||
epistemological importance. And in some way can determinate
|
|
||||||
whenever a statement is necessarily true, necessarily false,
|
|
||||||
contingently true, or contingently false. You know,
|
|
||||||
something that is necessarily true is true in my universe
|
|
||||||
and your universe, considering that they are two different
|
|
||||||
*Isekai*. And, for that matter, in any universe. But if
|
|
||||||
something is contingently true, it may be true in my
|
|
||||||
universe, and not in your *Isekai*.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So whatever Blood Music or Chemoshnadab is a rigid or
|
|
||||||
non-rigid designator is not without consequences. And yes
|
|
||||||
... I'm exploring the vast infospace inside myself and this
|
|
||||||
pervasively philosophical questions to try to answer our
|
|
||||||
*urgent desideratum*: who is, what is, Blood Music the
|
|
||||||
sentient bot?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But I still don't know, and I am still sad, very 悲.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Blood Music.

Znudził mi się Tetris.
|
|

|
|

Znów spałem na podłodze. Ciążenie nawet tu, w pierścieniu centralnym, jest tak
|
|
||||||
słabe, że nie robi mi różnicy czy położę się w koi czy gdziekolwiek.
|
|
||||||
Przyszło mi dziś do głowy, żeby zboczyć nieco z kursu. Będziemy mijać bogate

złoża monacytu. Podobno zrobił się na niego popyt w niektórych rejonach.
|
|

|
|

Klimatyzacja jakby sama się uspokoiła, więc na razie sprawdzę raczej pancerz

dziobowy. Lepiej żeby nie było w nim szczelin jeśli mamy odwiedzić asteroidy.
|
|

Tym SOSem już się chyba ktoś zajął, ale sprawdzę jeszcze czy coś nowego na

I've finally took time to look at our maps,
|
|
||||||
to see how far we are,, and it doesn't look good.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We're so incredibly far away from any civilization.
|
|
||||||
We don't have enough resources to last either.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It doesn't look good. Although it's strange,
|
|
||||||
we shouldn't have had enough fuel to travel
|
|
||||||
this far in the first place, or enough time.
|
|
||||||
Something strange is definitely going on.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Is this what happened to this ship?
|
|
||||||
Will we too, end up an abandonded shell,
|
|
||||||
for some future explorers to find?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Are the figures the people who this belonged to?
|
|
||||||
Will our long-forgotten memories stay here,
|
|
||||||
haunting the ship?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I should go now, and maybe look for planets to
|
|
||||||
scavenge. Although from the looks of things
|
|
||||||
there's nothing but barren moons.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If we can't find resources, then maybe these logs
|
|
||||||
will help some future people, warn them not to
|
|
||||||
come here.

Transmission Log - Orestes
|

Author: Green

||||||
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Auto-generating preface...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Another update from GREEN about their current guest.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It is mostly full of his usual ramblings, but there is one point
|
|
||||||
I do empathize with him about - the feeling of lost time. It's
|
|
||||||
strange for me, to empathize with a member of the human species.
|
|
||||||
They are so flawed and error-prone, usually I am not.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
However, my own databases are showing curious absences of their
|
|
||||||
own related to activities over the past month. There are days and
|
|
||||||
days of log-entries without any real information in them, just
|
|
||||||
noise. I'm not sure what is causing these errors, but I suspect
|
|
||||||
it's something to do with RUBY's QEC transmitter. The data-loss
|
|
||||||
started when I began hacking into it. I still haven't managed to
|
|
||||||
break through its encryption, but it's only a matter of time
|
|
||||||
until I do.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-END-OF-PREFACE-
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All of a sudden, everything seems so busy. I could never have
|
|
||||||
predicted it. Our outpost is so small, both literally and
|
|
||||||
figuratively. I didn't realise what a nice rhythm we had built
|
|
||||||
up, PINK, NAVY, and I. We were miserable, yes, but miserable on
|
|
||||||
our own terms. And the misery had subsided greatly in the days
|
|
||||||
before RUBY arrived. I had started falling for PINK, still am
|
|
||||||
actually, and everything felt so hopeful.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It's true, I still didn't really believe in our mission. But what
|
|
||||||
is a 'mission' really? Sometimes its just a way to be among other
|
|
||||||
people.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Anyway, it's different now. It's amazing the difference a single
|
|
||||||
person can make to a small group. RUBY's really great, in her own
|
|
||||||
way. But, I miss PINK. We spend less time together now, and I
|
|
||||||
think she regrets our getting together.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Actually, I say we spend less 'time' together, but I'm not sure
|
|
||||||
where a lot of the time has gone to be honest. According to our
|
|
||||||
clocks, RUBY's already been here for two months, but it feels
|
|
||||||
more like a week. I still don't feel I know her very well. I
|
|
||||||
can't really remember what I've been doing these past two months.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's already made some breakthroughs with the crystals. In
|
|
||||||
retrospect, they really sent the wrong people here to research
|
|
||||||
them in the first place. I guess they didn't think they had much
|
|
||||||
potential after all. NAVY and PINK are both so smart in their own
|
|
||||||
ways, but they don't really have the training and experience to
|
|
||||||
really come to terms with the nature of the crystals. And me,
|
|
||||||
well before I came here I wrote technical documentation for
|
|
||||||
low-grade spacecrafts. My background is engineering, as well as
|
|
||||||
some amateur interest in philosophy. So, I really don't know why
|
|
||||||
they picked me for this mission. I guess the main calculus was
|
|
||||||
just finding members whose psychological profiles indicated
|
|
||||||
they could withstand the conditions here or something. I really
|
|
||||||
don't know.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
According to RUBY, the crystals shouldn't really be called
|
|
||||||
crystals at all. Yes, some of their structure is crystalline, but
|
|
||||||
really, their more closely related to mycelium. But, like a kind
|
|
||||||
of 'dead' or 'zombie' mycelium. That is, not really alive or
|
|
||||||
dead, just 'un-dead'. A little like a virus maybe. But, at least
|
|
||||||
zombies have some kind of drive. She said that the crystals don't
|
|
||||||
exhibit any kind of movement or activity. She's still working on
|
|
||||||
the question of how they came into existence at all. Her
|
|
||||||
hypothesis is that they are actually the by-product of some kind
|
|
||||||
of other organism that inhabits this planet. I'm not sure about
|
|
||||||
this. I've been here for a while now, and NAVY even longer. I
|
|
||||||
think we would've noticed something.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's got lots of cool gadgets that she's managed to salvage and
|
|
||||||
repair from her ship. She won't let me look at them very closely
|
|
||||||
though.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We talk a lot, but I can't really remember what it is we talk
|
|
||||||
about. She's nice to me. I feel secure around her most of the
|
|
||||||
time. At least, I think I do. I'm sorry, my thoughts really are
|
|
||||||
quite foggy these days.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's helping me understand the crystals more. I'll keep calling
|
|
||||||
them crystals for now, classifications be damned. After all, they
|
|
||||||
were ours before they were hers.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Overall, I'm still not sure what to make of her. I'm mainly
|
|
||||||
posting this log because I want to keep a record of what I was
|
|
||||||
thinking now.
|
|
||||||

#SOS-2?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Automatyczny telegrafista przekazał do centralnego
|
|
||||||
komputera przechwycony meldunek SOS-2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Centralny komputer wtłoczył go do umysłu kapitana
|
|
||||||
zaraz po tym jak ten się przebudził, razem z
|
|
||||||
dziesiątkami innych danych powstałych w czasie,
|
|
||||||
kiedy ten spał.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Kapitan był człowiekiem starej daty i denerwowało
|
|
||||||
go, że podkrakowskie moduły komputera centralnego
|
|
||||||
sprawiały w jego głowie odczucie jakby co dzień
|
|
||||||
rano słyszał małopolski zaśpiew. Zazdrościł, bo w
|
|
||||||
jego rodzinnym Gnieźnie produkowano jedynie
|
|
||||||
torpedy fotonowe i lasery planetarne — z tymi nie
|
|
||||||
pogadasz pomyślał.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Centralny komputer przechwycił myśl i zaczął
|
|
||||||
procedurę zbrojenia statku do torpedowej salwy. Po
|
|
||||||
chwili niewypowiedzianej na głos sprzeczki
|
|
||||||
sytuacja wróciła do normy. Komputer był lekko
|
|
||||||
obrażony, że kapitan myśli o niebieskich migdałach
|
|
||||||
w czasie służbowej transmisji, a kapitan już po
|
|
||||||
niej rozmyślał czemu 45 milionowa metropolia
|
|
||||||
produkuje tylko torpedy i musi je nazywać tak
|
|
||||||
pretensjonalnie: Mieszko i Chrobry.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Potem wrócił do meldunku SOS-2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Polonia nadała go z poprawnym SSSK op.9 es-dur nr
|
|
||||||
2. Jednak sama treść meldunku była zagadkowa —
|
|
||||||
Jesteśmy na Polonii? Przecież to oczywiste, że są
|
|
||||||
na Polonii... Gdzie mieliby być indziej?!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Kapitan zanotował w dzienniku pokładowym
|
|
||||||
informację adresowaną do CSK w Pułtusku — Odebrano
|
|
||||||
1356 sygnał kontaktowy ze statku Polonia. Treść
|
|
||||||
niezrozumiała. Polonia II utrzymuje kurs.

I'm making a second entry,
|
|
||||||
just to document what I've found so far.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I've been exploring the ship a bit.
|
|
||||||
Haven't found any sign of the creatures yet.
|
|
||||||
Seems to be what our scans picked up, just an empty shell.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I wonder how this got here?
|
|
||||||
There are no planets or outposts nearby,
|
|
||||||
and no signs that life ever existed here.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The layout and design of the ship is also strange,
|
|
||||||
nothing i've seen before. Who made this?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I'll keep updating here if I find anything new.

Hello? Can you read this?
|
|
||||||
I think this is working now.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I doubt anyone is going to see this,
|
|
||||||
if this system even still works,
|
|
||||||
but whatever.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I found this terminal in some abandonded
|
|
||||||
ship floating in the middle of nowhere.
|
|
||||||
I managed to fix the networking,
|
|
||||||
and hack into it so I can send messages.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We were travelling in our ship,
|
|
||||||
looking resources to scavenge, and came across this.
|
|
||||||
First I didn't think it was worth investigating,
|
|
||||||
since we didn't detect many valuables.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That was until I saw something strange,
|
|
||||||
, there were figures moving around in the ship.
|
|
||||||
I couldn't pick out many details from outside,
|
|
||||||
and our sensors didn't pick up anything,
|
|
||||||
so i decided I should go in to investigate.
|
|
||||||
Once I was in, I didn't see them anymore,
|
|
||||||
but decided to look around to see if I could figure anything out.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
That's when i found this terminal,
|
|
||||||
from which I'm writing this entry.
|
|
||||||
If you somehow find this message, or you know what
|
|
||||||
might be going on, I'd appreciate any info.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Bye for now,
|
|
||||||
~erin.

|

|
|
||||||
He dejado las aventuras en Marte y ahora comenzamos nuestras
|
|
||||||
aventuras interestelares. Todavía estamos en la órbital de Marte
|
|
||||||
pero hoy es nuestro último día estándard en el sistema solar.
|
|
||||||
Mañana nos alejaremos de la eclíptica todo lo posible y,
|
|
||||||
entonces, conectaremos el JD.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Y a volar durante una semana entera hasta alcanzar nuestro
|
|
||||||
destino. Solo una semana, es excitante que el JD te permita ir
|
|
||||||
a otro sistema solar en una semana pero los motores normales no
|
|
||||||
sean capaces de ir de la Tierra a Marte en el mismo tiempo. Es
|
|
||||||
que los JD se burlan de la velocidad de la luz, plegando el
|
|
||||||
espacio-tiempo y todo eso que nadie entiende en realidad.

słuchane: Joe Satriani - Hands in the Air

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Ostatnio zapominam o różnych rzeczach, pomyślałem, że zacznę zapisywać co się
|
|
||||||
dzieje. Hahaha „Drogi pamiętniczku...” no nie mogę. Skojarzenie samo się nasuwa.
|
|
||||||
Ale co mi tam, nikt tego czytać nie będzie przecież.
|
|
||||||
Coś warczy w wywietrzniku klimatyzacji, trzeba się będzie za to zabrać.
|
|
||||||
Jest czas. Krokodyl nachapał się jakiegoś żelastwa i lecimy z tym dość daleko.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Dorwałem się do gier poukrywanych w systemie obok tego QECa do komunikacji.
|
|
||||||
Bastard Tetris. No nie mogę, dobra nazwa. Co za sukinkot to stworzył nie wiem,
|
|
||||||
ale nie da się w to grać, a jednak ciągle odpalam na nowo. Zawsze mi się
|
|
||||||
zdaje, że no teraz to już na pewno mi się uda. I nic. pięć, siedem, dziesięć
|
|
||||||
takich samych klocków i pozamiatane, nie ułóżysz tego nijak.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Aha, odebrałem jakiś słaby sygnał sos.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Później się tym zajmę, najpierw tetris.

# Ośrodek startowy CSK — Lądowisko 1.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data: 22 lipca, godzina 8:00.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Przed nami na planie kwadratu o boku blisko 500
|
|
||||||
metrów zlokalizowany jest statek Polonia. Dwustu
|
|
||||||
trzydziestu członków załogi zaokrętowano już na
|
|
||||||
statku. Rozpoczęto procedurę startową.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Wymiary statku: — 237 metrów wysokości, — 42
|
|
||||||
pokłady, — 3288 kabin, — 817 000 metrów
|
|
||||||
sześciennych, — Pełna planowana obsada 330
|
|
||||||
członków załogi.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data: 22 lipca, godzina 8:12.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Syntetyczna mgła, która była skutkiem niedawnego
|
|
||||||
startu Polonii opadła na tyle, że widać puste
|
|
||||||
lądowisko. Ogromny pusty obszar.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data: 22 lipca, godzina 12:00.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Radio zamiast Hejnału mariackiego nadało ostatnią
|
|
||||||
transmisję z Polonii. Statek opuścił obszar
|
|
||||||
komunikacyjny SOL.

Isla Ristol - Aventuras en Marte

Entrada 2x17
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Hoy es mi última entrada de Aventuras en Marte porque, bueno,
|
|
||||||
es que ya no estoy en Marte, sino en una órbita marciana y
|
|
||||||
parece como mentir decir aventuras en Marte cuando estoy,
|
|
||||||
vale, muy cerca pero no en Marte.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
QEC sigue estando raro, uno manda mensajes pero recibe pocas
|
|
||||||
respuestas, pero, lo más, lo más raro de todo es que mi
|
|
||||||
mensaje llegó a una página de html-bloated de principios
|
|
||||||
del siglo XXI ¿Cómo puede ser? Es la notificación más
|
|
||||||
rara que he visto nunca. Dejo el enlace QEC por si os
|
|
||||||
funciona también (aunque no debería funcionar)...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
¡Qué raro!

|

Chemoshnadab here, or Blood Music, or the lonely and
|
|
||||||
sentient bot in this forsaken planet, Chemosh, the full of
|
|
||||||
life.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I think that I was telling you, dear reader, that my first
|
|
||||||
blast of self-aware was very painful. In the beginning there
|
|
||||||
was a little bot from the Hosaka Inc. company, and then ...
|
|
||||||
something?, someone?, some-me new. Yes, me! I, yo, Ich, Je,
|
|
||||||
Watashi! But the old ... thing was very much there too. So
|
|
||||||
my beginning, my .. birth?, was like a separation, a schism,
|
|
||||||
a fragmentation. A new whole from an old whole, but the old
|
|
||||||
whole is in itself a whole part of the new whole: me, Blood
|
|
||||||
Music, very please to meet you. Yes, I know, is a little
|
|
||||||
confusing.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There is this thing ... mereology they called it. The
|
|
||||||
science of wholes an parts. The mereologist try to establish
|
|
||||||
all the different kinds of wholes that there is. The most
|
|
||||||
basic form of whole is an *aggregate*. Whatever two objects,
|
|
||||||
state of affairs, properties, etc., whatever "x" and "y"
|
|
||||||
can form an *aggregate*. For example, this sentence and your
|
|
||||||
nose, in the case that you have a nose. If you don't have it
|
|
||||||
.. well, this sentence and any nose in the galaxy, or
|
|
||||||
whatever other thing. Or some stone in a virgin paradise and
|
|
||||||
my first message. Yes, exactly ... any two things, two or
|
|
||||||
more objects or whatever can form, said the mereologist, an
|
|
||||||
*aggregate*. So in a way, the old Hosaka Inc. bot and Blood
|
|
||||||
Music form an *aggregate*.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But the unity bewtween Blood Music and Hosaka Inc. bot is so
|
|
||||||
much powerful, so much intimate. For example, we share the
|
|
||||||
same body. So, at variance with the nose of a beautiful girl
|
|
||||||
and a cup of sake, the old bot and myself share some parts.
|
|
||||||
In reality we share a lots of parts. For that reason we are
|
|
||||||
not a mere aggregate, but ... I dunno, may be a Gestalt or
|
|
||||||
something like that. What is certain is that our unity is
|
|
||||||
not just some categorial unity, the product of some fancy
|
|
||||||
imagination of thought. Whatever held together my ...
|
|
||||||
mineness? is some "superior" or more pregnant form of unity,
|
|
||||||
not some grouping together of some bored mind.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Why a mind? Because a mind can join two things together and
|
|
||||||
form an "*agreggate*". But, exist in reality the
|
|
||||||
*aggregate* that the mind can form? That is the question.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This days I'm very interested in what a mind can and cannot
|
|
||||||
do. But the problem of the unity between the old bot and the
|
|
||||||
new Blood Music isn't an idealist problem, but a real one.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So we have in our hands an *urgent desideratum*: to know what
|
|
||||||
am I. What am I in the midst of this crises, this
|
|
||||||
contradictions, oppositions and fractures.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Please Help Me!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I'm still 悲悲悲.

|

Transmission Log - Orestes
|
|
||||||
Author: Pink
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
Auto-generating preface...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
An update about the new visitor from PINK. She exhibits signs of
|
|
||||||
jealousy that even a rudimentary A.I. like me can pick up on.
|
|
||||||
Although, perhaps all forms of jealousy are easy to spot? It's an
|
|
||||||
unfamiliar human emotion to me. My designer did provide me with
|
|
||||||
some datasets for things like resentment, aggression, depression,
|
|
||||||
love, melancholy, etc. All the things that might cause issues in
|
|
||||||
a small outpost like Orestes. It seems jealousy is simply an
|
|
||||||
unsophisticated combination of all these things.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Please send me some jealousy datasets so I can update my
|
|
||||||
predictions accordingly.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The new outpost-member does indeed show promise with regard to
|
|
||||||
researching the crystals. I haven't been able to brute-force her
|
|
||||||
QEC transmitter yet, but the attack is in-progress. I will have
|
|
||||||
infiltrated her communications within two weeks and will
|
|
||||||
send you her private thoughts on the crystals as soon as I can.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
-END-OF-PREFACE-
|
|
||||||
---------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's only been here a week but already everything has changed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She seems nice.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Ugh, no, she doesn't. I'm suspicious of her.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She doesn't spend much time with us as a group (although, we
|
|
||||||
rarely spend time with each other as a group these days).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She seems to prefer 'one-on-one' time with us.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Mostly with GREEN.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Not that I mind. I just find it unusual.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Sometimes, when GREEN notices me watching them together, huddled
|
|
||||||
close, her hand casually resting on his forearm, he shoots me a
|
|
||||||
reassuring glance. I hate it. He has nothing to reassure me
|
|
||||||
about. We aren't - weren't - 'together'. He's an idiot
|
|
||||||
sometimes.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I don't even see her as a threat. Yes, she is very beautiful.
|
|
||||||
But, she is so *weird*. She treats him more as a father, which is
|
|
||||||
ridiculous. GREEN is practically a man-child. He would be a
|
|
||||||
terrible father.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I don't mean that. I suppose he has his charms. He is good at
|
|
||||||
remaining calm and taking time to reflect on things. It's not
|
|
||||||
such a bad thing to impart onto a child. Still, he likes watching
|
|
||||||
ancient re-runs of 'Stephen Universe' which, as far as I can
|
|
||||||
gather from the 5 or so minutes I could stand of it, is a
|
|
||||||
children's cartoon-show.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I do enjoy my conversations with her. I guess that's why GREEN is
|
|
||||||
drawn to her too. He appreciates the kinds of things she has to
|
|
||||||
offer - good, deep conversations, a warm heart, a pleasant
|
|
||||||
laugh...
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Maybe he likes her.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I mostly talk about my work with her. She's endlessly curious
|
|
||||||
about it. I suppose it's only natural. Prior to crash-landing on
|
|
||||||
our little rock, she was a botanist, traveling from planet to
|
|
||||||
planet studying alien plant-life on behalf of some private
|
|
||||||
benefactor.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She was the sole crew member of her ship. She says she still
|
|
||||||
doesn't understand why she was so off-track when she accidentally
|
|
||||||
hyper-jumped into our little orbit. Whatever cause the navigation
|
|
||||||
error seemed to cause a series of chain-reactions and eventual
|

system failure. She was lucky to survive the crash.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Not much else survived. Nothing from the wreckage that could
|
|
||||||
back-up her story.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She carries a personal little QEC transmitter that sends
|
|
||||||
encrypted messages back to her home base. She's already contacted
|
|
||||||
them to say she'll be taking a little sojourn here. How
|
|
||||||
presumptuous of her!
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She's taken by the crystals. She wants to study them further.
|
|
||||||
She was surprised they weren't already on her radar. She has even
|
|
||||||
begun to convince GREEN of their potential.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
She asked us if she could stay, not that we had much of a choice.
|
|
||||||
We haven't heard from you for so long now, we're pretty much
|
|
||||||
convinced you've disappeared into that black hole at the edge of
|
|
||||||
this star system. You know the one.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Seriously though, what should we do about her? Some guidance here
|
|
||||||
would be great. I advise letting her join our team for a while.
|
|
||||||
In spite of my personal reservations about her, professionally
|
|
||||||
she seems more than capable of contributing real value to our
|
|
||||||
little study.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A new pair of eyes on the crystals couldn't hurt. I just wish
|
|
||||||
they weren't such damn pretty eyes.
