A message sent from the unknown depths of space is wonderous and at the same time fundamentally terrifying. How it is recieved and interpreted is what we wanted to explore. What will you conclude?

It came out of an ocean that appears to be its native habitat, so I don't think it wants to eat him. There's only one of him, so I don't think it wants to enslave him. One at a time would be very inefficient. The email seems to indicate that it wants to talk to him. The content seems to indicate that it wants to program him. The spells where he jumps locations appear to be the development of some new kind of ability. A test maybe? One that he appears to have passed at least the first part of.

It's incredibly rare to get more than one or two of those, and unheard of to get them all. But you did just that. Very well done and satisfying. This was wonderful, thank you!

@KryyssTV Месяц назад

It's funny, only last week I was updating some design notes with a notion like this. Humans are unique in that sound has a profound effect upon us across all levels of our cognition - emotional, intellectual and even somatic. Sounds can literally shape our understanding and interactions with reality. So I pondered, what if that process was refined beyond language and music? A perfected way to reshape the mind in a way that we don't percieve but our minds react to. A mind hack ,as it were, that we think is random noise but fundamentally changes everything about us in moments.

@Donkichoff Месяц назад

👍exactement, très bonne réflexion, surtout si nous prenons en compte le fait que soyons potentiellement dans une matrice, l'énergie, le son, sont des informations, le cerveau est un décodeur, qui interprète et réagit aux informations en envoyant des signaux aux autres sens 🤔 exactly, very good thinking, especially if we take into account the fact that we are potentially in a matrix, energy, sound, are information, the brain is a decoder, which interprets and reacts to information by sending signals to others sense 🤔

@kennethbransford820 Месяц назад

== Since the brain is a decoder and programable organ that had to be designed for what it can do Mr.@@Donkichoff . Who then is the designer of our brain? It didn't just happen from dirt wouldn't you agree since it is an organic computer using complex formulaic chemical equations that is right now allowing you to think giving you the abilities for thoughts and consciousness etc... Only DESIGN, can account for the first cause singularity bringing the universe into existence and everything else in it. Revelation 4 : 11 “You are worthy, Jehovah our God, to receive the glory+ and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they came into existence and were created.” ====

@KryyssTV Месяц назад

@@Donkichoff Actually neuroscience suggests the opposite, that we get stimuli from our senses that the brain receives and what we experience is a mixture of reality and hallucination. Take for example the blind spot in our eyes where the retina connects to the optic nerve, if you place a dot on a piece of paper and position it perfectly then the dot will vanish and be replaced by blank paper. Now, you literally can't see anything in that area yet your mind creates a hallucination to complete the image. This is also how night terrors work exceot that what you experience is less sensory and more hallucination like we see in this short film.

I have seen this film before. Well, I believe this individual made contact with otherworldly entities and they have invaded the time and space continuum that he previously understood. After all his job was to review the signals that were interpreted from other destinations in the cosmos and received on Earth. After the initial contact of what he heard he could have either made a file, report it, delete it but instead downloaded it. This one was a doozy! _____ Masterful in concept, acting and Special FX. _____
