wolfs posted:oh god damnit the last thread had a post about Blindsight and i was curious where that poster had gotten that point of view on the story my hot take on Blindsight and Echopraxia is that peter watts is basically a coward attached to feeble positivist notions of consciousness. He wants to believe he's totally rational and in control of himself, and he's terrified of letting go of that illusion of control. all his characters -- both human and alien -- reflect his fear of alternative ways of thinking (from the standard western model). nobody and nothing in his books can be cognitively different without being "broken", insane or sociopathic or a cold paperclip maximizer. like don't get me wrong, the novels are creative and all. but the moral of Echopraxia is basically just "wouldn't it be spooky if your brain... did stuff without asking you???" like, dude, I don't mind when it does that. it's pretty cool to have a heartbeat actually.

i feel like Lain anticipates the emotional experience of posting on twitter fairly well. except it's not nearly boring or obnoxious enough to be genuinely realistic

wait actually I think it's closer to how the decaying brain of a Facebook boomer interprets reality
