BIOMASS: Alive —eBook
Starship Argentina manufactures 3D printed humans—and uses them to seed the universe.
As an AI spaceship, Argentina is a highly functional artificial intelligence system but has no connection to a biological body herself. One that can think and create from nothing. All she can do is reorganized data already programmed into her system. And she wants her freedom. She wants out!
Amanda 721 has lived aboard the starship Argentina her whole life. While Argentina has manufactured humans, Amanda has watched those humans go off on their adventures to other planets, to colonize, to start new lives. Before she dies, Amanda wants to experience an adventure of her own. Until she is faced with one.
Amanda’s wish drives head on into Argentina’s fabrication of a body for herself, using a cloned brain. Is this the kind of adventure Amanda was looking for? And can Argentina handle controlling the ship, the manufacturing, and a biological system without going insane?BIOMASS> Alive explores consciousness, emotion, data collection, and freedom in its most essential and basic sense.
