A "data cable" made from stretched nerve cells could someday help connect computers to the human nervous system. The modified cells should form better connections with human tissue than the metal electrodes currently used for purposes such as remotely…
All this talk of climate change; of the continued abuse of hydrocarbon bonds got me thinking. How are we expected to put our oil addicted world into perspective if we haven't got a perspective on the oily substance itself? It's all very well setting targets;…
Next time you go for the proverbial dump consider the process involved in turning one plate of badly cooked meat and veg into a self perceiving, website reading, procrastinating you . It occurs to me that the chance of atoms, manufactured billions of years…
Aliens! Wide-eyed, short-statured, extraterrestrially-elongated aliens! In a universe as vast as this one (assuming you aren't one of those un-evolved creationist types) alien life of some form or other appears to be a statistical certainty. Yet, in an…
This self reflexive , autopoietic haiku, is defined, then ends.
Mu Haiku is back! If infamy is a viral infection then Jesus is surely the memetic common cold, clogging up the nostrils of civilisation since year nought. This guy was such a fly in the ointment of empire that simply killing him was not enough for the Roman…

Food is fashion these days. A symbol of your 'lifestyle'; a token gesture of the kind of culture and upbringing you were formed from. We adaptable humans eat everything, even substances not considered compatible with our digestive processes are shoveled into…
Yes, it's Mu Haiku time again at The Huge Entity ! Get your brains at the ready and your contemplative consciousnesses engaged. A real nonsense splitter today: "The US state of Kansas has ruled that science classes in public schools should include the…
Mu is a Japanese and Chinese word regarding an absence of/in the negative. When one desires an answer, but your question makes false assumptions, the answer can only be Mu. A radical change of perspective is required before the Mu can be overcome. With this…
So yesterday was Haiku day (depending on how you arrange your date yesterday was the 5th of the 7th month 2005 - 05/07/05) and I went and missed it, but it doesn't mean I can't pretend and bathe in the glory of the 5-7-5 structure we all know so well. Today's…
