Sometimes I find things in the folders on my hard drive and am surprised to find that I had written it then forgotten it. Below you will find one of these.

It looked at the diagram again and made an adjustment. The first sphere lit. The device was working per specification. It made another adjustment. A second sphere appeared within the first sphere and expanded. It could clearly see the shock waves as it expanded to envelop the first sphere. With another adjustment a third sphere appeared and soon enveloped the first and second sphere. The Being smiled.
"This is good and very good." It said aloud.
"Are you sure this is what you really want to do?" Asked a gentle voice that was not quite feminine.
"The program is booting as planned and the algorithm is sound. Why not?" It replied in not quite a masculine voice. "After all what harm can it do?"
"But it's not real."
"It as real as you or me."
"Explain how a mass of probability within a computing system can be real."
The First Being pointed at the now semi-silvered spheres. "It is well known that given set of dimensionality, a computing system can set up multiple parallel solutions to a problem."
"True."
"Then posing a question to such a system will cause it to seek a solution for all of the possibilities and return the optimum answer. All I am doing is looking for an answer."
"What is the question?"
"I want to understand energy dynamics"
"Energy Dynamics is a question? I thought Bayus answered that eons ago. What has this got to do with this programmatic system being real?"
"Ah! I must explain."
The not quite feminine Being nodded.
The First Being replied. "I read Bayus and while that noble master gave a great broad stroked picture of the processes of energy dynamic and exchange I want to know about some of the finer points."
"Such as?"
"Love."
"Love?"
"Yes Love."
"I don't understand."
"Neither do I. What makes love what it is? Why does it do what it does?"
"So you've created a programmatic system to simulate it? You are wasting your time."
"No actually I should know the moment after I put the final algorithm in place and set it to run."
"That's impossible!"
"Was impossible. I have crossed Bayus' work with Smeedol's and added quite a bit of Angrathor's Quantum stuff. Not to mention Davi."
"Wasn't Smeedol the one who created artificial life forms?"
"Yes and Angrathor was the true master of quantum computing."
"You are going to create artificial life forms?"
"Not exactly. Within their reality frame work they will be quite real and their reality will last forever. Within our frame work it will be only a moment."
"How are you going to get this to work?"
"That's where Davi's work comes in. Davi was the master of evolutionary selection algorithmics. I broke the evolutionary process into ten steps. What you see are the first three algorithmic steps running."
"And those are?"
"Consciousness, Intelligence, and Comprehension. These three are the basis of a being's existence. The next seven are the actual formulation of the multi-dimensional evolutionary variables of the energy equation I am trying to solve."
"And those variables are?"
"Giving, Resistance, Balance, Expansion, Control, Creative Urge, and finally once these are in place and running the last algorithm, Mechanism, with provide the solution."
The First Being turned and motioned over the controls of the machine.
"I told them about these things and our conversation."
"Told? Told whom? There is only you and I here."
It pointed at the console. "Them. The first of the beings that live within it. They are my servants and messengers. They will assist in the evolution of the algorithm."
"I said before, Are you sure this is what you want to do? Aren't you afraid they will get out of control?"
"Without them the program won't work as planned. As for going out of control, that part of the program too... Let's take a look back in an eon or so and see how they have evolved."
"But what about control?"
"I'm not a control freak. They can do what they want within the limits of the program."
"But..."
"Stop worrying. Its good and very good. You'll see."
