Virtual Reality is Out of Control...'Let me remember the dream again for a moment. Let me hold it in my mind. For with everything it has become - a shadowy reflection, a hollow advertisement - it is getting easier and easier to forget. And lately, many of its shadows have been haunting me. The shadows of paths never taken in the woods. I do not know the precise point that the dream of the Spiral began to diverge from what it once was...' ...Welcome to a free, short Virtual Web sci-fi story that explores ideas about a futuristic, immersive Gameworld influencing all levels of society...with emergent defects... NOTE: This is a fairly challenging, 'background' story with an emphasis on ideas. It will relate to some more accessible stories to follow... including, hopefully, a novel. If you're interested in writing about 'The Spiral' then search 'Fountellion' for the Medium publication. Fans of TRON, 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' by George Orwell, and 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley, may appreciate similar themes. Please comment with your impressions or feedback on the themes and content of the story... Best wishes, and 'Progression'!

This was a writing experiment meant to better the human experience. The author was programmed with a lie: that all story structure involves man vs something. What if there were a truly neutral character? Clark, his coworkers, and everything in his universe is an intriguingly surreal landscape with thick yet unique humor as a canvas. Just read a paragraph, human. You will love it. :)
