Nebula, a definition.

The Phrygian Heir story is broken down into chapters, defined by the nebula being navigated through or- transgressed. With each new nebula come novel anomaly as expressed by strange visions and uncanny encounters with "otherness". This "otherness" can be any disruption to the character's, supplicant or humanoid, expectations of normal-normality as the clone's programming attempts to synthesize the apparent dichotomies of sequence and the infinite. The tension between these two forces of finite and infinite is perceived and expressed in the identity politics within the supplicant population. The crew of the Sycamore is restricted to "male" identifying clones only. A "Three's Company" moment arises when a "female" identifying android makes an appearance. The one humanoid cannot discern between an actual female android and a projection or anomaly of the specific nebula they are currently transgressing. The mood on the ship becomes one of overall uncertainty. The lattice of agreed upon lies breaks down as the human (Charles) begins to have issues resolving reality. Charles comes to the realization that unresolved reality is fertile ground for speculation and potential becoming-ness, and this is exciting and terrifying. Again this encounter with the finite and infinite is echoed in the strange ritual / habit the clones have of burying one another in a non authorized parcel of soil in the belly of the Sycamore.



nebula (Latin for "cloud";[2] pl. nebulaenebulæ, or nebulas) is an interstellar cloud ofdusthydrogenhelium and other ionized gases. Originally, nebula was a name for any diffuse astronomical object, including galaxies beyond the Milky Way. The Andromeda Galaxy, for instance, was once referred to as the Andromeda Nebula (and spiral galaxiesin general as "spiral nebulae") before the true nature of galaxies was confirmed in the early 20th century by Vesto SlipherEdwin Hubble and others.

"The "Pillars of Creation" from theEagle Nebula. Evidence from theSpitzer Telescope suggests that the pillars may already have been destroyed by a supernova explosion, but the light showing us the destruction will not reach the Earth for another millennium.[1]"

Little big man

This is a fictional story that speculates about a possible future. This story explores what it is like to be the only human on a ship in outer space. The space ship in this story is called the Sweet Gum. It is called Sweet Gum because its shape is similar to the seed pod of a tree that grows in the American South. The Sweet Gum is a mining vessel that is populated by x number of supplicant android life forms. The integrity protocols of the mining vessel's mission make allowances for one actual humanoid life form. The one actual human on board assists the  android life forms in maintaining behavioral traits conducive to the tasks at hand. This one humanoid life form is the narrator of our story. The title Phrygianheir is a play on words. The play is between the word Phrygian, which is an ancient cultural region in Turkey but also a type of cap worn by those people. Eventually that cap became associated with freed slaves in Greek culture and eventually came to signify Liberty in general when associated with the French revolution. And now they use them on packs of cigarettes. So in a sense the name Phrygianheir is one who has inherited this tradition of social political and cultural transience, servitude, resistance and the subject of commodification. The word is also a play on a refrigeration appliance. In the story of the clones all the information for replicating their android DNA is kept in a fridge on the ship. Eventually as it is the only fridge on board, the whole crew uses it to store their snacks. The intro to the sitcom Odd Company opens with a shot of this fridge door being opened.This story is being told from the aggregate cascade of Mombo-x 9fu14, a file by-product of the data-grosse edict pre-post humanist era.


Glossolalia or speaking in tongues, according to linguists, is the fluid vocalizing of speech-like syllables that lack any readily comprehended meaning, in some cases as part of religious practice in which it is believed to be a divine language unknown to the speaker.
