#MEMTech

[spikehunter]

every world power has them. has for years. you don't see them — they drop into the blogfields under cover of darkness, wearing stealth tech, black on black, IP-dark, anti-archive armor, 9 factor authentication. they stay out of screenshot range. amphetoglucose gel on the gums keeps them alert at the keyboard for fifty, sixty hours at a time. the other bloggers don't talk to them, don't interact at all. if there's more than one deployed — which, by the way, is a sign that the vibes are well and truly fucked — they have their own dedicated medic, nearly as silent and cold as the posters themselves. otherwise, they deal with their wounds on their own. and they are not often wounded.

they're untargetable — no troll with a quickprinted anon spammer is going to hit one in a million years — but they're not immortal. no amount of bioengineering can fully overcome sheer bad luck. mass callouts, grief raids, blocklists, ban sweeps... sometimes they'll get one. bycatch. it's convenient for everyone that these methods usually leave their remains unrecognizeable. none of them are sent home in a box with a deactivated banner. they just disappear, as silently as they appeared; though this time it's a silence masked by a tremendously loud noise.

this is all an open secret amongst heads of state. every couple years some minor faction, some gimmick movement, some ditch board without the ability to maintain their own shadow ranks, will claim to have captured one alive: a strange foreign soldier, activity patterns unlike anything seen before, wigging out all their stattrackers. these are lies, obviously. there are three layers of impossibility here. the first is the unlikelihood of getting one off the field at all, considering, as i've mentioned, that the only things that will get them to stop running are tactics that tend to leave irradiated discourse craters the size of geocities. the second is that all of them are bioprogrammed to kill themselves immediately in the event of capture; they have an intentionally shorted node in their hearts that will deactivate them as soon as their brain recognizes they've been caught by an enemy. the third is that whoever's sponsoring that rebellion — because let's be real, every independence movement is someone else's annexation movement in a funny hat — whoever's up top feeding them their memes, they'll cancel the whole thing themselves. maintaining the secret existence of these dark edge posters, units who post in ways humans never could, is more important than any national victory.

(if memtech had turned out like we all thought it would back in the seventies, this info-eradication campaign might have been less bloody. but as it is, the only way to reliably eradicate information is to kill. and i guarantee you that any funnyman you can think of, on any platform, would turn the gun on themselves in an instant if they thought it was necessary to preserve this status quo.)

needless to say — the poster children themselves could take down the entire blogosphere if they felt like it, but such ambitions were cauterized out of them at thirteen weeks' gestation. so to was any possibility of escaping this system and living as normies. and we're all better off for it. one can imagine a world where our way of life didn't rely on these strange things grown in permanent nightblogging, born with phone in hand, raised only to post and die in secrecy, but would that world really be any better? is our world now any better for all the atrocities that might have happened but didn't? this is the reality of blogging. this is what puts memes on the table. this is as good as it's ever going to get.

the term "poster child" actually refers to the genetically engineered superbloggers being manufactured by the government to post better and faster and in greater quantities than everbefore

in the future, pain didn’t exist

masterlist

In the future, pain didn’t exist.

When you were younger, you might have marvelled at what the future would hold. Technology was advancing at such a rapid pace, new tools and creations invented with each rise of the sun over the horizon, that you’d always allowed your imagination to run wild. Incredible things could happen in just a few years, who knew what could happen in ten, twenty, fifty? What would change the world in your lifetime?

Hovercrafts, renewable energy, holographic technology— your younger self spent many hours pondering what you’d live to see grace the world. What would the future hold? Of everything, you’d only considered the material— and what would exist. Not once did you ever consider what wouldn’t.

It was the future, and pain didn’t exist.

Pain stemmed from the present, and its roots were buried in the past. Regrets, shame, humiliation— you’d known a time when these were a staple in everyday life. They weren’t questioned, they just were. Rash decisions made in the heat of the moment spilt regret down the back of your throat like bile, memories of past shames and frustrations fed the fire that made its home in your abdomen in the present. How ironic, that it was in memories solace was eventually found.

MemTech. It had been revolutionary, ground-breaking technology. Human beings weren’t always the strongest of species— flight would almost always take precedence over fight, when the situation stemmed from actions of their own doing. Problems, were difficult—pain, was difficult, and pain was scary. Pain elicited a fight or flight response.

When faced with the option of dealing with the pain of the present or fleeing to the solace of the past, it wasn’t a very difficult decision for most. MemTech offered peace, relief. Humans of the future escaped the pain of the present by living in the pleasures of the past.

Memories were a drug. Why would anyone ever return to the present, ever choose pain, when they could spend their days reliving the best times of their past? MemTech offered that. You could relive your best memories, the ones you remembered most, and the ones you’d almost forgotten. In the future, pain was a choice— and so pain didn’t exist.

If you had to think of your favourite memory, it wouldn’t take you long at all to choose.

A car trip, months in the making and planned meticulously— and yet, you were still running behind schedule and Yoongi’s foot was heavy on the pedal as you blazed along the highway. The summer air was beginning to bleed into autumn crisp, and it was on the coattails of summer that you had scheduled your camping trip.

“y/n put the window down, it’s too hot in here!”

If youth were to take physical form, you didn’t doubt that youth would be Jungkook. His voice graced your ears with the freshness of spring and the fluidity of a river flush from the monsoons. Jungkook was one of the people most precious to you, but that didn’t stop you from turning and poking your tongue out at him in retaliation.

“I’m not putting the window down, the wind will mess up my hair!”

Jungkook had adopted an expression of pure disbelief, but the two squished into the backseat beside him had howled with laughter. Taehyung, a true testament to the phrase ‘life imitates art’, leant against a cackling Jimin for support as he wheezed. Jungkook’s expression hadn’t been the funniest thing you’d all been witness to, but in the excitement, the pure, unadulterated elation buzzing in the air, anything and everything was hilarious to them. Laughter fuelled the light in the air, the joy in your hearts. You’d spent the previous months hard at work and now it was time to reward yourselves by truly letting go, feeling the joy and the happiness that came hand-in-hand with being free, if even just for a moment.

Jungkook launched into a heavy protest at your refusal to bow to his puppy eyes, the backseat a lively mess of laughter and whines against the loud rush of wind from the windows. Yoongi, the barest traces of a smile curling his kitten lips, wordlessly wound his window down completely and at once Jungkook’s complaints cut off as a satisfied sigh escaped his lungs and cool air blasted against his face.

As if he protests hadn’t been enough, the image of the youngest sporting a face of bliss as his hair was whipped violently around him was enough to send the other two filling the backseat into another fit of laughter. The warmth was contagious, the freedom that came from allowing laughter to build in your chest and tumble from your lips unchecked too tempting to resist as your own giggles joined the ridiculous cacophony. The car was filled with a symphony of your joy, the sound of your youth welling from within and compelling even Yoongi to join your antics. This moment, you had decided right then and there, would be your happiest memory.

And it was.

Filled with the excitement of the weekend to come, the experiences to be had and the memories to be made with your best friends, and surrounded by mirth and joy that accompanied the freedom carried on fresh summer air, there was no room for pain. There was no room for worries, for sadness, for hurt. It was the purest moment, your happiest memory.

In the future, the pain that had been entwined so deeply in the life of the present, didn’t exist. People didn’t choose pain, they abandoned it, and in the process, they abandoned life.

How was it truly living when you spent each moment running from the present? Fleeing to the past as an escape, but not the past you’d lived— a different past, a selective remake of only your happiest memories and highest times. MemTech offered that escape, and only a fool refused. To live meant to be in the present, and in the future, no one was truly alive.

But you had tasted life before the time of MemTech. You’d tasted pain, sampled agony and savoured happiness. You knew what it felt like to live in the present, to feel alive. And living in a rose-coloured revision of the past, you’d never felt so dead.

You had remembered your happiest memory, had watched it pass once more before your very eyes, and you knew that you’d reached the point where your happiest memory had ended. You knew you should press the large button on your device, should return to the world of the living before your knees grew damp and soiled from the dewy grass beneath, but you couldn’t urge your finger to shift, your thumb to press. There was no pain in the future, pain was a choice. You should be choosing to turn off your MemTech device.

But you couldn’t, and life began to breathe back into your lungs as the memory continued to play. You should have stopped it, should have withdrawn while you still could.

Your camping trip was to be spent in the forest, on a camping ground nestled within a set of mountains. The road was known to grow winding at times, but the early-morning light should have been enough, should have offered perfect visibility as you rounded jagged mountain faces and climbed higher and higher up the side of the landmark.

It should have.

There were many things, however, that shouldn’t have been.

You’d departed behind schedule, but it was still outrageously early in the morning. Heat was barely beginning to set in, and as the suns rays began to beat against the bitumen the moisture of the night just passed began to rise as mist. It wasn’t a clear day, and as you began to climb the mountain, you soon discovered the low clouds that remained hidden from view.

When the fog that shouldn’t have been there began to appear, you shouldn’t have ignored it. When it began to thicken and visibility was reduced to a mere metre or so in front of you, you should have reminded Yoongi gently to be careful. You shouldn’t have told him, “Yah, slow down, you’re going too fast”, because maybe then he wouldn’t have grown frustrated at your comment, “y/n, don’t backseat drive, I know what I’m doing”. He was a skilled driver, and he didn’t need reminding, but as he shifted gears to accommodate for the circumstances that shouldn’t have been, the car was thrust into a moment of vulnerability.

And now, of course, you knew how potent a moment could be.

Tears stung your eyes— was it now, or then? Were the tears slipping over your cheeks a phantom of the past, or a remnant of the present?— and you wanted so badly to close them, but when you’d come seeking a memory to escape the present, you were unable to escape the past.

All the lights in the world wouldn’t have let you see the large water truck careening down the winding road of the mountain, and if you’d managed to glimpse it a mere second before you had, what could you have done? Grey flashed before your eyes and there was a loud sound, a screaming sound that ripped your heart in two and tore your soul asunder as your entire being was swallowed whole in the unforgiving, icy abyss of fear. The summer air that had caressed you so gently before now whipped you about like a broken doll, metal tearing and groaning and the railing alongside the road giving way beneath the weight of two vehicles. Tumbling, crashing, screaming— tears spilt down your cheeks without restraint and you knew now that they were rooted in the present. There had been no room for pain in that moment, after all.

You didn’t know when it stopped, this was where your memory grew vague. MemTech could not patch holes with memories that didn’t exist. When your eyes reopened and your lungs were freed from the suffocating weight of an ocean of fear, it was still. There was no fog where you were, and the sun beat down against your face a moment too late. Your joy, your elation, your freedom— it all made way for red.

And now, it made way for pain.

You tore the device from your head, finding that your face wasn’t just wet from hot, scalding tears, but from rain that had begun to fall while you were too distracted to notice. Your knees were wet, pants soiled from the earth that was now more damp than it had been when you arrived. It wasn’t emptiness you felt as your eyes fell upon the headstones before you, laid neatly in a row, it wasn’t death that filled your lungs. It was pain, hot and agonising and excruciating that burned you from the inside out. The death you’d grown accustomed to feeling was no longer within you, but around you. Even with the MemTech device removed from you head, you were surrounded by your past, and even in the future as you were, you were filled with the pain of the present. You choked, gasped, lungs filling to the brim with a sensation you’d fled from for so long, a sensation you’d deprived yourself from feeling. In the future, pain didn’t exist. Pain was a choice.

And now as it trembled along your limbs, throbbed within your head and tore into your heart, it was something you chose to feel alive. In the future, pain didn’t exist. But this was your present, and faced with the memories of your past—

Pain was inescapable.

Singapore’s NRF sorts membrane consortium to join investigation with field

The Singapore skyline. Impression courtesy of 1989studio/Shutterstock.com.

The Countrywide Investigation Basis Singapore (NRF) is setting up a membrane science and technological innovation consortium to boost investigation, collaboration and commercialisation in membrane items and systems.

The Singapore Countrywide Membrane Consortium (SG-MEM) will present a platform for researchers, field and government agencies to boost and obtain membrane technological innovation.

SG-MEM will carry together the membrane R&D capabilities of Singapore’s general public-sector universities and innovation centres like the Separation Systems Applied Investigation and Translation (Get started) Centre, beneath Nanyang Technological University, Singapore’s innovation and company arm NTUitive the Countrywide University of Singapore’s Membrane Science and Technological innovation Consortium (MSTC) NTU Singapore’s Singapore Membrane Technological innovation Centre (SMTC), which is element of the Nanyang Atmosphere and H2o Investigation Institute (NEWRI) and Ngee Ann Polytechnic’s Environmental and H2o Technological innovation Centre of Innovation (EWTCOI).

The SG-MEM consortium will also perform with Singapore-anchored industries, as nicely as government agencies like SPRING Singapore, the Financial Progress Board (EDB), the Power Industry Authority (EMA), Singapore’s national water company PUB and the Countrywide Atmosphere Company (NEA).

Shell, Sembcorp, Grundfos, Kurita-Singapore, Aquaporin-Asia, Ceraflo, De.mem, Blue Ocean Memtech, Marmon Item Progress Heart, Evoqua H2o Systems, SUEZ, Regentech, ECOSOFTT, UES Holdings and Tritech Group Ltd have already joined the SG-MEM consortium as founding members.

These providers will have obtain to entire world-class investigation laboratories and facilities situated at the investigation institutes to manufacture, assemble and take a look at membranes.

“Singapore has created a strong popularity as a chief in membrane systems for water procedure,” said George Loh, director (Programmes) at NRF. “Our universities, NUS and NTU, are ranked top in membrane investigation, and they have designed highly developed membrane systems for water providers. The SG-MEM Consortium gives the platform for SMEs, which are not in the water sector, to have obtain to membrane systems for programs in varied sectors like food stuff and drinks, fragrance, and medtech. This will support our SMEs benefit from the latest systems to mature their organization.”

Andreas Kroell, CEO of Singaporean-Australian water and wastewater procedure organization De.mem, said: “SG-MEM delivers together two sides of the medal in the membrane field benefit chain: field and investigation. Singapore is entire world-major in the two. From De.mem’s point of view, the capability to observe investigation, technological innovation and innovation developments as a result of this platform, put together with the strong aid and push of the Singapore government towards commercialisation, is a good asset. This is specially important for a organization like ours, which is escalating rapidly but however constrained in conditions of resources and manpower in contrast to much larger MNCs (multinationals).”

SG-MEM will emphasis on five sectors with options for the commercialisation of membrane technological innovation: gasoline separation and purification in electrical power concentration and purification of pharmaceutical ingredients clarifying, concentration and purification of items in food stuff and beverage controlled drug-supply programs and electrical power-successful procedure procedures in the water sector.

The new consortium will be governed by a Steering Committee chaired by Dr Adil Dhalla, taking care of director of Get started, and a Specialized Administration Committee headed up by Professor Gary Amy, coordinator of the MSTC. Dr Dhalla and Professor Amy see SG-MEM as a vehicle to establish Singapore as a globally recognised membrane hub.
