This caught my eye over at Bruce Sterling’s weblog–Beyond the Beyond:
“The latest craze in the virus-worm-spam war has seen computer worms crawling inside of other computer worms – like watching maggots crawl on top of each other as they make their way through a tender piece of meat.”
Computers. Which reminds me, there’s a book I’ve been meaning to write about… I’ll get to that shortly.
For some reason, this whole computer metaphor made me wonder how things would’ve needed to be different in this world in order for a certain song to exist…
“Living in a metaphorical world/And I am a metaphorical girl”
Okay, so the rhythm doesn’t work, but it’s an interesting idea nonetheless.
