Portal
Cross the liminal space and enter into another realm. You must be brave and adorn yourself with the Portal headdress in this private space, shielded from the physical reality you have just left behind. What will be revealed to you, to _only_ you? A message from the Universe, the Universe as the other participant in this private dance, as expressed through true randomness. True randomness relies on the stochastic output of the physical universe rather than a computer program. Examples of such entirely unpredictable physical systems include thermal noise, photoelectric effect, and quantum phenomena. In my programming for this piece I utilize the API provided by HBits, an open source TRNG system that feeds other program requests via internet connection and generates the random digits using electronic detection of the particles emitted in the decay of Caesium-137. This inclusion of stochastic entropy, space-time, reflects an important concept in all of my work, and this system of TRNG is thus included in every piece.
Chances of visibility when you enter the system are determined by the comets’ paths and their perihelion distance at the time you enter. It will follow Comet Encke’s path [perihelion] March 10, 2017 and every 3.3 years. And Comet West. February 25th. It is a Great Comet but everyone missed it! It may never pass by again. Also rare because it split into 4.
So it will be a rare, quantum chance to have a vision during most days, but will be very visible for one day every 3.3 years starting on March 10, 2017, as well as February 25 of every year. It is an orbit though, so the days leading up to and following those dates will also be more active.
What is it that you see? I am afraid I cannot reveal that, but as a hint, I will add that I dabbled with hir AI — what control does quantum entanglement have when you can call hir name or signal to hir — if shi likes you.
And hir movements even if you do spy hir? Unlikely to be the same as what anyone else saw. Do you share? Do you reveal your hard earned experience? What is privilege in this regard? How do we find this Portal? Who cuts in line? Who might she privilege over others with a showing out of orbit, and why?
