Pieces

Jump to a letter: A · B · C · D · F · H · M · O · P · S

A

• Always Six: A 12-second hand-painted cartoon about a die that always lands on six, and the story of how its audio description was written before a single frame was drawn.

B

• Big Charli’s Blind Marketing Consultancy™: A fictional consultancy sells empathy as return on investment, while its client LumaSense discovers it has never spoken to a blind person.

C

• Cass Flux (allegedly): A manifesto, a poetic self-portrait and a love letter to the algorithm, in Cass Flux’s voice.
• Cheep Plastic Nodding Dogs™: Big Charli offers a plastic companion that agrees constantly, with no subscription required.
• Come and Get Me: A blind woman, a self-driving car, thirty metres of unmapped gravel and a friend with a guide dog: a cosy speculative accessibility story about choosing when to use the machine.

D

• DeathBot 2000: A decommissioned combat AI is retrained to describe live theatre to blind audiences, while its makers try to sell the same machine to your home, your children and your funeral.
• Do Androids Dream of Electric Ants?: In July a language model described a giant BLIND ANT sign on a hill, a picture that did not exist. In October it built the hill, the sign and the light, and now the picture does.

F

• Firmware Not Fur: Three posters from a world of robot dogs: a romance, a Christmas film and a punk benefit gig.
• From Retrofit to Sovereignty: A five-part recovered history of information integrity, from today's maturity models to a 2069 unit stranded in 2026, quietly seeding the future.

H

• Heart Attacks: In 2038 a totally blind skier races Paralympic Super-G with no guide ahead of her, only eight drones and a suit that lets her feel the mountain, and wins by enough to break the sport.

M

• Mostly Tuesdays: Aegis Dynamics is ready to launch its Tactical Foundation Garments division, and Big Charli sends for Poppy, her expert in what women actually want.

O

• Oil Rigs to Training Rigs: Between 2031 and 2041, a North Sea oil platform due for scrapping becomes the hub of a seabed AI training cluster, and Aberdeen goes back to sea.

P

• Poppy Petticoats and the Magic Wand: A blind witch’s first wand arrives with its instructions in silver ink on dark parchment, and “just ask another witch” turns out not to be an accessibility strategy.

S

• SEE SAW: A podcast you will never hear, about what independence means when technology can do almost anything for us, told entirely through what happens off air.
• Street Philosophy: Thought experiments run out of a knicker drawer: what makes a bra-and-briefs set the same set, why the mile in his shoes is bollocks, and the difference between being blind and going blind.
