ChatGPT describing a story that takes place in the future and tells the adventures of a group of green technicians who operate the Earth Computer — a global network withoutwires, hardware and abstractions — which works by means of a peculiar media ecology comprised of interconnected natural elements. In accordance to drastic technological constrictions resulting from planetary boundaries, the group has to rely solely on unconventional methods, such as electro-crystallizations, alchemical transmutations, crystal radio transmission and biologically-inspired computing (i.e. Slime moulds which can establish protoplasmic networks, acting like an amorphous massively parallel computer, with distributed inputs, or sensors, decentralised information processing and decision-making).
In the year 2123, a group of green technicians known as the "Eco Coders" were entrusted with the operation of the Earth Computer. This was not a conventional computer with wires and hardware, but a global network that functioned through an intricate web of interconnected natural elements. The Earth Computer was a testament to humanity's ingenuity, a peculiar media ecology that had evolved in response to the planet's boundaries. The Eco Coders were not your typical technicians. They were alchemists, biologists, and ecologists, each with a unique understanding of the natural world and its potential for computation. Their tools were not silicon chips and circuit boards, but electro-crystallizations, alchemical transmutations, and crystal radio transmissions. One of their most unconventional methods involved slime moulds. These simple organisms could establish protoplasmic networks, acting like an amorphous massively parallel computer. With distributed inputs or sensors ...
