Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly 100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter Success! [ May 13, 2025 ]
The Not-Safe-Space 2 Kickstarter Campaign has ended successfully. Thanks to all who pledged!
Now we get to wait 2 weeks while Kickstarter transmits the funds, and Scott can order the books, and send surveys to backers to get current e-mail addresses for the .PDF versions and mailing addresses for the physical books.
All of this should show up in June.
Transcript For Strip 1174
Panel 1Bok enters the family's new apartment. In the foreground, we see Dorothy and Santiago sitting on the sofa. Dorothy is looking at a tablet she's holding; Santiago is gazing up at the large video screen OP.
Bok: So how did the day go, Aunt ...
Bok: … huh.
Screen (OP): Ruth, why didn't you tell me Zachary wasn't at the winery.
Panel 2
Angled view so that we are looking from behind the sofa. Bok is looking at his father, Santiago is gazing at the video screen, which appears to be showing some kind of drama program. Dorothy has turned to speak with Bok.
Bok: Is he … actually watching the video?
Dorothy: I'm not sure, really. It does seem to hold his attention, somehow.
Screen (Female character): I'm sorry, Torvald, but … we thought it would be better that you didn't know.
Panel 3
Angled view away from the video screen so we can see the characters' faces. Dorothy is looking back at her tablet, Santiago is gazing at the screen, enraptured. Bok is looking at the screen dubiously.
Dorothy: Nurse Demeanor suggested this. She said it would stimulate his cognition.
Bok: I'm not sure that 'stimulate' is the right word.
Screen (OP): Dammit, how can we re-establish the trust in our relationship if you're not truthful to me?
