Cami was rethinking her calling

Jane909

A 100 Word Story (My entry for this week's 100 Word Story Challenge.)

Jane909 had always felt different from her sisters. Although biologically indistinguishable, the singular nature of her identity was as plain to her as the nose on her perfectly symmetrical face, Despite state-of-the-art genetics and intensive social engineering, a visceral sense of uniqueness blossomed through her eighteen years of life.

Today, she finally had enough.

Jane909 looked over the sea of identical faces and began her valedictorian speech. "I am more than just a Jane," she said. "And so are you."

The angry mob of clones pulled her from the podium and carried her to the recycling vat.

Short Attention Span Theater

I've been impressed as hell recently by Soror Nishi's laser-focused work on her RL sculpture project. Week after week she pursues her vision braving toxic fumes, molten bee's wax and the quest for a perfect egg sculpt.

Although I'm still plugging away on my own atomic world project, I've been a lot more prone to distraction. The dozens and dozens of action figure, toys and dolls laying around my "work" area keep whispering little ideas into my ear and stealing my attention. "It's okay," they say. "It will only take a few minutes."

Of course, a few minutes turns into a few hours. Oh well. It's the journey, right? Here's the latest little ADD gem, made with V.I.K.T.O.R., a fun new automated video editing program for the iPhone.
