  In an instant of artificial ecstacy made possible by the ground of the technological, the mind accelerates in blind white light. A virtual moment impending the extinguishing of visceral body and meaningless world, nihilist objects recede in decrescendo, fading into the far distance of a timeless past. The bodiless mind accelerates in bodiless abandon, careless of any meaning that might have tied it down. Relations thin and stretch, intersecting, collapsing, dispersing – a confusion of associations, an orgy of mental forms. The mind continues its strife away and senses the approaching attainment of escape velocity. The achievement will be had, it thinks wildly, more focused than ever before. The aim, its goal, is in sight; its movement, taken precise direction and interminable determination. In another moment, it will find itself free. In another moment, it will become unclaimed, unborn. It will become unbounded to any previous engagement and will become limited only to itself, alone, in silence.
