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.

Panel 1
Diana and Monty are walking down a corridor, with Wook following.
Diana: All right, all kidding aside, what function might this hyper-whatsis serve?
Monty: It's not that difficult a word, Diana.
Monty: Hyper. Cube. (H)exa. Hedron.
Panel 2
Diana rolls her eyes.
Diana: Okay, okay. Hyper-cubexahedron. But what's it for?
Monty: I have no idea -- Remember that I said, 'sort of.'
Monty: In fact, a cubexahedron, hyper or not, can't exist in normal Euclidean space.
Panel 3
They're entering a different room, with other sorts of techy-equipment.
Diana: So, we're talking about extra dimensions?
Monty: Maybe three or four extras, I suppose.
Monty: But not the type of extra spatial dimensions that most physicists talk about.
Panel 4
Standing near a person-sized table in that room. Monty is looking a bit exasperated.
Diana: Why would Hayami want to build something that can only exist in theoretical extra dimensions?
Monty: I DON'T KNOW! It makes no sense!
Diana: That's why we need to figure out what this is for.
