2072: Part 1 (chapters 1-3)
PROXY/ war looms, growing up in the draw of the network state
Sofv Petrov Patel, (SPP) 18-19 yrs old, finishing high school and making decisions about adulthood
Chapter 1: The Awakening
As a reclusive internet focused kid, Sofv Petrov Patel discovers his superpower “accelerationism” and its potential use by civilization to guide society into the future. He struggles to cope with the combination of vast potential, debilitating over stimulation and isolating secrecy.
Chapter 2: The Revelation
IRL, Sofv Petrov Patel engages a wise mentor who reveals a path where SPP can put his powers to use: understanding the true nature of the ongoing conflict among humans, driven by uncertainty around the role of machines and the apparent existence of higher-dimensional forms of human consciousness. This practice is known as “Far Future Design” and is practiced by a set of accelerationists that function as oracles and advisors for the world’s elite.
Chapter 3: The Conflicting
Sofv Petrov Patel faces his first major challenge as he comes to a fork in the road. Based on the path of learning he chooses, he either…
…responds to the common and lucrative call to learn the skills required for supporting his human tribe in the battles between humans (known as the PROXY/ war),
or he
…focuses on the esoteric, removed, shamanistic-monastic path towards being a Far Future Designer that apparently involves working with AI and consciousness to pursue a peaceful and equitable future for all humans.
