Echoes of the Great Farewell
Ben Goertzel
Adopting a wildly poetic style oscillating transchaotically between SF, prose poetry and avant-garde literature, "Echoes" explores the life and mind of an crazed AI researcher in a near-future world, as he indulges in excesses of sex, drugs, metaphysical and cognitive philosophy, and communication with elusive microscopic aliens. Does his superintelligent AI come close to destroying the world, or only his mind? Only the Psychedelic McBuddha Machine knows for sure.
