I'm pretty sure I've got what I want the computer to be able to do. I just sent off a pitch to Shadowline Comics' Superheroine Contest with a huge outline of the story.
Everything right now is pretty ad hoc. I made up a drug called PneuSpeed that somehow allows its users to speed up a localized pocket of spacetime around them. And then I started wondering how the heck something like that could possibly work outside of some unexplainable pseudo science blech (there, I rhymed for you). I came across this idea by David Bohm that the brain is actually a quantum computer. However, skeptics have calculated that the brain is not an ideal environment for the brain to function as a quantum computer ... blah blah.
I still don't even know what all of it means, really. I'm trying to read up on a ton of literature out there but I'm not sure if what I'm interpreting/deciphering from these Quantum Mind theories is going to gel with my story or not.
So I came here. I've been here in the past and you all rock.
