7.26.2011 Busy planning. Taking action. Gathering evidence. Assembling results. Heightening dialog. Flirtation. Rough drafts. Innuendo. Just another cycle.

Are you still telling a story here?

Yes, I'm telling a story. I know the narrative has been kind of abstract but that's my style. Why don't we look away from the cycles of phylogons for a second and talk. The characters are headed toward a very real moment soon. John believes he has made a significant discovery and he has! He is trying to take action by collecting screen images from the amazing software. He wants to share the experience with his colleagues so he writes an abstract for a computer science journal and sends it to the reporter for feedback. But we know the stuff he wants to publish is bunk. And worse, he won't understand his real discovery for a long time.

I get that John is trying to do his job in the world we live in, but what about this weird harlequin character, is he evil?

He is ambitious and self-centered and he definitely has designs on using John as an avatar to explore Earth. But he cannot accomplish his goal until they are in resonance which means John will have to accept what is happening.

Why would he ever do that? An where does New fit in? What is she?

She is their relationship; the third thing that appears when two people interact.

Okay, weird, but an interesting character. When does she show up?

In every moment she encircles their interactions; as complex as the situation demands.
