This project assumes that its authors know what it means to be human and that that definition of human can be applied to all members of the race currently existing on the planet. There are no specifications made about humans from the United States or humans from Guatemala; all are lumped together. In finding the alien in our own race to be a...

When I say— (the sun sets on a field of blue to orange-red) it has nothing to do with— (thin fingers of smoke rise from refugee chimneys) (tired heart, clutching threadbare rest)

The lake is half frozen & the geese & swans can’t make up their minds. Everything has gained a transitory aura & its tough to pin down exactly which habits should rise from ancient genetic patterns until the beard-frost leaves the surface. Their feet are leathery— the cold does not phase them.

Drums started the boys west to this field from Washington. War to them was a three-month enlistment, a bright uniform & a chance to carry a musket. Senators, Congressmen, their wives & children, packed baskets with lunches & followed to watch the show. Almost a century & a half has passed. Somehow my visit seems forced,...

I most are kids can’t grow a mustache where they’re going, bullets won’t care jumpy ghosts who know nothing about conflict except what a fist feels like after a school dance argument ready to be heroes boots, BDUs & guns leaving gym bleachers like a slow parade watch the families say good-bye with tearful fuck yous &...

Sobre todas as coisas e sobre tudo no mundo Um círculo começa onde terminou. Mas onde ele termina, então? Apenas transferimos o problema de um lugar indefinido pra outro lugar indefinido. Não. Se a pergunta for "Onde começa um círculo?" então está resolvido. Tudo é referencial. Eu não sou metódico. De qualquer forma,...

I'll start with a fractal I find fitting to this website. It is an image of infinitely many worlds. I've always been fascinated with fractals. The chaos and complexity that can be found in just one hints at some answer to an unknown question. Relatively simple equations bring about infinite patterns and possibilities. And they look awesome...

"By and large, Kaccayana, this world is supported by a polarity, that of existence and non-existence. But when one sees the origination of the world as it actually is with right discernment, 'non-existence' with reference to the world does not occur to one. When one sees the cessation of the world as it actually is with right discernment,...

I’d like to write you a message in hundred-foot high flaming letters. It would tell you you no longer needed glasses. A passing spacecraft might mistake my words for a signal that the earth was running out of air and, though we are very sorry, there is no safe place for them to land. If the words were bright enough they may carry to...

Do not say “red”. Avoid mention of Ares. In fact, don’t wax classical at all. Keep it simple. Don’t drink the water. There isn’t any. Say there is. Exaggerate the prospects for terraforming. Tell us the weather is nice. Or, that it will be. Wish we were there. Tell us so. Invent a new word for red. Write it. Make a...

you were on a man handled carriage studded with glimmering gold shining like a sun solemn in peace as i become filled with the rooting vegetation of any of the men that stare at you, blinding me, staring at the sun. i, causing the eclipse, you force your eyes to me. you are a decoration for the populace like a toy that comes to life...

I remember. I remember pacing around my room interrogating you like a suited lawyer interrogates a guilty suspect sitting on that podium. you. you converse with the guilty, who are like you - suddenly mute. I remember pontificating on the stage of my room, on that isolated, childhood soapbox. no longer am i afraid of the...

my vision slowly faded into an overwhelming white glow. at the gates of heaven, only the weak survive. and i was never ready to die ever. God was standing in front of me he was dressed in army garb that had very obviously never been through much. he quickly apologized for everything - i smiled and he looked relieved. he said he never...

I came across this story by the late great Arthur C. Clarke. I'm not going to reproduce it here because it's probably copyrighted to his estate or something like that, but if you're interested in reading a very short story about the fictional fate of a certain species, which just might be applicable to our own, I suggest you do so by clicking the...

Communication of (human like) experience became WiiWare group’s main guiding light in the attempt to update the Voyager Project. Before it morphed into the WiiWare, that guiding light had to be filtered through criteria of nature of human experience, human’s experience of experience, and the notion of “human suit”. In the end (which is...
