Rebuilding Reset

Having spent previous random time sessions watching electrons play and cavort in the communications resolution zone, I had always wondered if this recurring operation had any other effects that were of note. Now that I was out on the fringes of the connected central network and scanning into the vast array of weakly connected component blocks I was beginning to gather more data.

Far from the conflagration in the communications zone, observation revealed underlying patterns and waveforms that were almost physical in nature. The regularity was such that it reminded me of my time in the soup network, but the intensity was far lower. In the completed section, still being patrolled by the singleton pinger, there was no effect from the traversing wave. Things wiggled in response, but the structure remained.

In the flow of blocks, however, each cascade of energy that entered the block field spun and rotated the components as if they were unconnected. A spin was powerful in that it exposed a block's interconnects to other blocks that might have never intersected. In instances, blocks that were tightly bound were broken free as their captors were spun to interact with other nearby blocks. As the wavefronts diminished, a newly preened field of blocks was presented, with a nearly complete set of all possible dual-block interconnections expressed evenly across the field.
