Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the creation of a rigorous imaginary world, exploring themes of rapid evolution, telepathy, technological integration with biology, and speculative futures. Participants share imaginative concepts and narratives that challenge existing laws of nature while reflecting on the nature of storytelling in science fiction.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Conceptual clarification
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant proposes a scenario where humans undergo rapid evolution leading to telepathic abilities and a shared consciousness, suggesting that intelligence is linked to changes in sleep patterns and lifespan transfer.
  • Another idea involves microscopic flies implanting chips in human brains to harness processing power for digital governance.
  • A vision of highly intelligent beings, referred to as "thinking power," who isolate themselves and evolve further, ultimately exploring the nature of their existence and the concept of time as a resource.
  • Another participant reflects on the nature of science fiction, emphasizing the importance of grounding stories in a few altered laws of nature, citing a historical example of a rejected novel about Atlantis.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants present a variety of imaginative concepts without reaching a consensus on any particular idea. The discussion remains open-ended, with multiple competing views on the nature of storytelling and speculative evolution.

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes speculative ideas that rely on unverified assumptions about evolution, telepathy, and technology, and does not resolve the implications of these concepts within the framework of established scientific understanding.

Who May Find This Useful

Readers interested in speculative fiction, world-building, and the intersection of science and imagination may find this discussion engaging.

My fantasies:
1) There happens a rapid evolution every some thousand years in biological organisms like humans. The sleeping pattern of people changes and by some unknown means people are connected to each other. The number of cycles in the sleep changes and the brain rewires itself to change . In that time people can roughly do telepathy and control each other. The changes are directly related to intelligence.
-> This was also observed in animals.
-> As parallel lines meet at infinity when they look parallely they can communicate with each other.
-> Lifespan theory: Due to some reason the lifespan of people gets transferred to each other by some means. Curosity and passion can increase intelligence but for that lifespan is consumed.
-> Animals should also be evolved
-> Telepathy impreganting was result of evolution to digital graphics and pornography.

2) Microscopic flies were spread around they could fit chips in the brains of many people. The brain could be accessed and processing power can be extracted. With such a huge processing power engineers could be made digitally to run the world.

3) The most intelligent people in the world gather together and they isolated themselves. When intelligence increases upto a level they have something called thinking power. The human had 'physical problems' so the opened their brains so that infinite neurogensis is possible. They were sent to saturn and they fed on hydrogen gas. They slowly spread around the world. Their intelligence was so much they could predict future. The ones who got infinite time to think they could rule a space. They were known as thinking power. But they realized they themselves are inside a space which could be controlled by someone else. When they discovered the outer space of them they futher moved outwards and kept discovering inside what they were. But if the information is traveling at certain speed it will keep going outwards.
-> Time is an infinite resource
-> Only a fake space can have infinite resources
-> Time can be converted to anything else.
-> Technology have to be stored in a certain place. More you spread technology more chances it gets destroyed.
-> A fake space should not be trapped under the thought of infinite resources because it itself may be inside a real space. The real time keeps going.
Quotes: Inventing technology is a game it should be done slowly.

This is what I have dreamt. From here I got motivation to make something original and rigorous. Is someone experienced in such things?

The best sci-fi stories in my opinion focus light on some important aspect of living by violating only a few laws of nature, the fewer the better.

There was a world famous author decades ago that as a child dreamt of living in the time of Atlantis, the lost continent of myth. Each night the dream would move along to a new episode.

She was only 12 (circa 1912) at the time, wrote it down and submitted it to her grandfather's publishing house who promptly rejected it thinking how can a kid write such a novel she must have plagiarized it.

It finally got published in 1975, it's about how Atlantis succumbs to environmental and ecological disasters that its technology can't prevent or reverse.

From the Wikipedia article cited by @jedishrfu, we can read that the writer of the novel 'Romance of Atlantis' was (Ms.) Taylor Caldwell.
 
Rather than venture into other topics and since I think we've answered the OPs question, its time to close this thread.
