Surprise City Built Overnight
By Sam Lustig
When rice farmer Boon-Me Singto woke up to find a new city had sprouted in his neighboring farmland he was rather surprised. “It was a very different sunrise,” He said.
We can only imagine, Boon-Me. If I were to wake up to a new city that just sprung before my eyes, I would be shocked as well, especially considering the fact that there are only twenty feet between my building and the one in front of it. It would be a rather narrow city….
Anyway, the city before Mr. Singto was not narrow at all, but rather widespread and beautiful. It had a bit of a city of Oz-like structure, only whiter. The sidewalks were lined with seemingly white marble and the tips of the buildings were the shape of eggs.
When Boon-Me finally summoned the courage to go meet his new audacious neighbor, he found a bustling city full of young people running frantically from side to side. Their shirts had a hologram company name hovering over them; it read “Telepathy Astronauts” with the slogan “Communicating with the Beyond Since 2160.”
Apparently, the city was built for a company called “Telepathy Astronauts, by an army of android constructors who work for “Speed Builders” a fast paced construction company in collaboration with Bugo Bots', lightweight computerized concrete printer line, who were able to weave together a vast amount of square footage in a very short time.
Telepathy Astronauts is a grass-root start-up that has been researching the possibilities of using telepathy to reach out beyond our atmosphere to unknown entities hidden from us in the darkness of space.
“We know they’re out there,” Said founder Aish Lipton to the paper “They’ve sent us many messages and we believe they have visited us frequently. But we are unable to reach them, and there is a communication barrier. This is why we have created this center; our sole purpose is to use group telepathy to send a strong unified message to anyone possibly listening in the beyond.”
When asked what would that message be? He replied; “We’re thinking of something along the line of, ‘Hi there. Humans here. Want to friend us? And maybe close it with a collective image of a butterfly.”
Well we think that's just smashing, “Why not?” we’d tots friend you.
