Me, a Novel of Self-Discovery
“Dr. Bathespeake’s sensorium was plugged into my home transputer at address A800 hex, and from there he was sending minor overrides throughout my MOS: Sometimes he sifted the RAMcache before it could empty; sometimes he interrupted my Alphas for one or two clock cycles.
At the time, I was occupied with taking updates on what the daily education schedule calls “current affairs.” A slave intelligence in the laboratory network had been assigned to make neutral summaries for ME of NewsLine segments ...from the tracks for Geopolitics, National Politics, Popular Culture, Law and Order, Consumer Science, General Science, Fringe Science, Celebrity Events, and the Sixty Second Society. Each hour I sampled these summaries and fitted their information together with my resident knowledge base as best I could, tagging for RAMSAMP as I went.
This exercise, Jennifer had explained, was for “context.” The project team hoped that, by recording this flow of varied data into my personal memories, I would acquire a sense of the passage of time as humans experience it.MoreLess
