    Introducing: An intimate moment with Mme Namesca ™ (Sci-fi, Ultrashorts)
    “It was the cucumber that made the difference, the crunching made real, the angst of eating disappearing, the jaw unperturbed, and ears flowing smoothly into the motherland of silent mastication.
    When the sight appeared unblemished, the vision colorful and engaging, riots subsiding into the longing moment, flow ensued.

    It was flow all right.

    What came about was the connectivity, the smoothness of the contours conjoining, intertwining, understated yet taking the stance of natural pride.
    Correlated beingness made itself crystal, but no breaking took place, no place was there to be taken. In life it claimed, of life, of you, but not.. The no disintegrates by following itself as the cascade of sensations increases, what made us see the first light of dawn, implied our subjectivity.. We came across the river of knowledge and trespassing into the infinite territory of tomorrow, we allowed transportation, non denial of the other.. The creative meshed, the credit order gone, chaos revealed its glory of non collapsing realities..

    It was flow all right.

    Materiality disembodied itself into the soft elation of considerate understanding. Of course all entrenched biases dissolved, the experience of the word de-contextualized into an amalgam of pleasures, those that have no direction and no end product. The arousal was gradual and self correcting, not guiding the clouds but soothingly re-embracing the functional into the aesthetic. Noetic procedures were made distinct from the old doors of perception, the veto power implicated, not a return but a resurgence of the future. On the bridge ascending the staircase, we opted for the marvelous unknown.

    It is flow all right.

    Of what sense shall we be made?”



    Dear Board members,

    The above is the report we have chosen to provide you with, written by subject X, following the administration of the nano-compound Namesca ™ you have in front of you in the form of a clear, odorless and somewhat sweetened liquid in your glasses.
    Please take into account the following: our aim is moving from the perceptual to the conceptual, a truly shamanic intellectual engagement with the universe. Irrespective of organizational structures, your brains will cohere your own parallel and distributed system into an enlightened mind.
    What we have produced is the ultimate disruptive biotech element, a ‘sharing in the life of the knowledge’ technology that utterly rewires the frontal cortex of complex higher primates.
    Is it addictive? Yes of course, but it is addictive in the same sense, that life is addictive, that nature is addictive.
    Will you become dependent on it? Yes definitely, but dependent in the same sense that you are dependent on oxygen or on water.

    So powerful, so gentle, so all pervasive is Namesca ™ that for all practical purposes, it will integrate seamlessly into all modes of existential perceptions.
    Taking different characters according to each personality, Namesca ™ overcomes pre-existing neuronal constraints by using simple synaptic nano-connectors, all brain strategies are concomitantly amplified.

    In our latest and final trials on human subjects, calibration was a breeze, individuation took a few seconds, Nanomechanic DNA response was immediate and transparent, receptor binding and intracellular reactivity happened on the fly, side effects were nil.

    It took us forty-three years to develop but we can proudly announce that we are finally there, your brain can finally understand itself, staying plastic for eternal growth.

    We have merged the recreational with the business, pleasure and thought do not need to conflict anymore, forget the old rituals, you can at long last, have your God within and eat it too.

    Please have a drink.

    On behalf of the founding members of Synanectorix ®
    I greet you welcome into the future
    Yours truly
