Close your eyes,
take deep breath and hold it in for second, then as you exhale,
suspend your understanding of science and logic as it has been taught
to you all your life. Open your eyes and bare full witness to the
“eternal clock work” city that is Kinora. You can pinch yourself
to make sure you will not awake from what you call slumber… GO ON!
I can assure you that what you as seeing is real, tangible so you can
touch it, and will not disappear when you finally decide to blink.
So your first
thought is “when does it stop” to answer that question you must
analyse the cities flow and rhythm like an examiner of the
contemporary dancing arts and a highly qualified engineer or mechanic
in their prime combined. You must carry a discerning eye. The word
wall is redefined in this city as the walls are ever changing,
disconnecting, rotating, sliding and interlocking to suit the
purposes of those who may need a large or small rigid surface to
stand and sit on, to connect two opposite facing rooms or even rooms
above and below, for shelter from suns rays and natures
precipitations, to create a private and intimate secret space for
maybe one other guest, or giant stadiums, arenas and concert halls
that would dwarf an American football field. The walls are the floors
and the ceilings if the inhabitants need them be. Buildings in the
city range from great monolithic towers to tiny offices meant only
for small computers and mechanical appliances. All of the buildings
are made of a strange looking metallic material that holds a granite
or marble-ish quality to them. Multiple structures are continuously
transforming, extending and retracting their extremities, even down
to the very foundations they are locked into, utilizing the
technology to suddenly create basements and cellars, or sometimes
embracing the very opposite, ejecting themselves into mid air only
hover over its former cradle without leaving any indication as to how
it was previously attached. Although this looks impossible you are
forced to believe it, seeing how the energy is never interrupted and
city vehicle-izes it self with such precise and controlled movements
providing the cities dwellers with a luxurious and care free tour of
their surroundings as they glide over and in between obstacles safely
to their destinations, can only give one a slight insight into the
brilliance of the minds that constructed the city. The Ground is warm
and has a dim glow at night just enough to illuminate its surrounding
areas softly, and the strange mater, that everything seems to have at
its core brings heat, for cooking and comfort and drops its
temperature below zero for freezing and preserving goods or keeping
your skin cool in the heat of a summers day. People can access this
energy with nothing more than touch of the palm to a wall for light
or voice command as faint as whisper to lower the rooms humidity, in
some cases even a gesture is enough activate the desired compliance
or mechanism hidden within the walls. Every movement is timed
perfectly and its difficult to see if the citizens lead or follow in
this intricate dance. The cities hygiene is unmatched due to its
“self caring” nature, garbage is literally non-existent, it is
either recycled or instantly incinerated inside the bottom of edged
polygonal protrusions that rise and sink in and out of the ground
seamlessly. The residents do no manual labour what so ever, they do
not even have to cook unless they desire… the city takes care of
everything and runs efficiently like clock work. At night the city
glistens with strips of light decorating sky scrapers and
accommodations as if the were ribbon rapped, indicating where there
is a party or performance or sporting event or many other leisurely
activities or even just where people are. Since the city successfully
provides for its children their whole lives are focused on love,
exploring the arts, and discovering the mental possibility to achieve
even greater things… the city being its population’s praised and
prized possession.
