Mirror box

        Dollcee said, it doesn’t appear to take long for a code to be breached; I wonder how long it will be before personal thoughts are being scanned, like a Bluetooth reader. Imagine that, there could be neural network thought scanners in buses, appraising and grading cultural risks of commuting citizens. 
        Wow, Dollcee, said Dos, what a fabulous conspiracy theory that makes. Be careful where you sit on the bus, some seats are fitted with neural network thought scanners and if you are found to have malignant thoughts going on in the privacy of your own head, ZAP, you are gone. Off to the reprogramming institution for cultural compliance.

        Cybo muttered, give me a moment to switch on, this is conceptually a great leap forward for the cultural compliance of citizens.

        Dollcee said, imagine how much it would save marketing operators. Free bus ride, Bang, Fizz, Scarreee and all your preferences can be recorded and analyse instantly and the bus could let you off at a destination that sells the products you now desire.

        Dos said, another enticement to get citizens to have their neural networks scanned would be, discover who you are, be scanned by the Magic of Me personal thought development scanner. 
        Cybo said, I think that has already been done in the pre-digital age by some brilliant artist. She made a box and lined it with mirrors.

        Cybo did something unusual for him, he kept talking; it is my opinion that the big revelation of neural network thought scanning, would be the similarities of citizen’s thoughts. I think that would be the big disappointment, especially by the conspiratorially inclined, how there is nothing particularly special about their thoughts.

        Dollcee said, sorry Sunshine, nothing unusual or unique about you. Another culturally trained citizen with predictable attitudes and behaviour, next please.

        Cybo said, it is delusional to be concerned with what is thought, when it is far more important to get lots of citizens to believe something actually has value when it is really only another idea or thing.

        Dollcee said, that is us, a digital popular culture band and no citizens are aware that we even exist never alone that our content is worthwhile. Digi-kidz, we don’t have anything that is tangible, we are only a code for switching on and off in all sorts of fabulous combination, however, you do need the appropriate reader to understand the message.
