Tales of the Singularity
I had this idea a few days ago, and so far I've got three little short stories to show for it. The idea is folk tales (I'm a sucker for Paul Bunyan) set in the accelerating time just before the Singularity -- gods coming into existence, weird and eldritch fiction becoming perceived reality, giants walking the earth -- it's gotta be rife with stories.
Here they are:
Bruce Schneier and the King of the Crabs
One is happenstance; two is coincidence; three is enemy action. I think the Muse is onto something here.
Oh, and some thoughts on being BoingBoing'd. Thanks for visiting!
