Letters From Lower Reality: Episode I

The following is an excerpt from the personal blog of a (fictional) computer.  (note, pretty much everything referred to in this post is either fictional or really abstract)

"The following is an excerpt from the tech blog BinaryHearts:

There has been a lot of speculation regarding the release of several compter applications, namely the new encryption tool HexAiEnc, Improved Mpeg Encoder, the RealLife physics engine, and several others.  These applications appeared out of nowhere; no announcements led up to their anonomys release, and despite being a 0.1.0 release, they were already highly polished.  Source code has not been made available, only binary packages, but it seems the developer has taken care to package it for virtually every known operating system in modern use.  Experts who have studies the binaries in an attempt to decompile them have been confounded; these binaries were either written from scratch by a guy with a hex editor, a freakish memory, and way too much free time, or they were compiled using a new, never-before-seen compiler of unmatched power end efficiency.  Our sources reveal that several large organizations, including Google, Microsoft, Apple, Oracle, RIM, and more have tried to contact the developer, offering prestigeous jobs and large sums of money in exchange for the compiler...
I am the developer of these applications, and here is the reason I will not be offering the compiler's algorithm for sale: I am the algorithm.  Source vode is not availabler because I wrote these applications directly as binary.  I have tried using various programming languages, but they seem so convoluted and inefficient to me.  No human has written an application as complex as these using only binary, but that is not actually relevant.  This is because I am not human.

Prayers

This page is going to contain a list of random things i think of that i want to pray for.  I find writing things down brings a lot more meaning to them, so i'm going to post things that i care about.  Feel free to leave comments, and i can update the list to include that.  So next time i don't know what to pray about, i can look over here and know.  i realize this is not the most technically elegant solution to this, but whatever.  maybe i'll go find something later.

Breaking the Silence

Time to break the silence.  In multiple ways.  First, i have been pretty busy for a while, and have not had time to post, leaving this blog to become the cold, musty, cobweb-ridden page it was.  Silence is being broken by finally updating this blog (took me long enough).

Another thing breaking the silence is my new song (titled Nineteen Sixty-Three), posted on my other site, dn3s (dn3s is my artist name). Check it out, break the silence coming from your speakers (if you are listening to music right now, that statement probably didn't sound nearly as cool as i wanted it to).

Another silence i would like to break is the one in my mind.  It is time for writing.  It is time to break the silence of all of those empty sheets of loose leaf, all of those unused sectors on my hard drive, all of those neurons holding their fire, waiting until i say go.  It is time to create.  It is time to bring order out of the chaos, and chaos out of the order, mix them together and call it art.  But more than that, it is time to care.
