The eom Expression: Beautiful Chaos – David Foresi 

 

Jeron Hayden yearns to explore and discover strange new worlds, but he’s just a shuttle pilot for hire.

Diverted by Enforcers, Jeron ends up on the wrong side of a dumpy orbital community over Saturn. He’s given a book he’s not supposed to have, granting him access to the rebellious tech black market.

Jeron becomes a smuggler, working with an illegal sentient AI.

Enforcers never stop enforcing, so Jeron and thousands of other rebels set out for Rieva, a beautiful world of endless potential. There, they form a new civilization based on freedom. Beer flows freely, and life is good.

The Enforcers have a mandate to stop the tech revolution underway on Rieva and an unlimited budget. War is the only possible outcome of such mandates.

With planet-ending weapons in play, monumental distractions can lead to mass death. The echoverse—a realm of entangled thoughts, emotions, and ideas, is a monumental distraction for Jeron.

Eom, an alien philosophy, holds the potential to reshape Jeron’s mind, allowing him to navigate the echoverse and possibly end the war. His guide to eom is a beautiful alien woman named Calira.

Your guide to eom is a sentient AI entity with no name. He was born amidst war. Along the way, he figured out how to get free beer, which would have been nice if he could drink it, so he’s got that going for him.

The eom Expression is a satirical science fiction adventure about the nature of existence, the mind, and individuality. It explores finding joy even amidst the uncertainty of a technological singularity. Enjoy the journey!

Biography: My wife and I live in Las Vegas Nevada and part time in Baja Sur Mexico (Cabo). We sell real estate in both locations. We also have an international travel agency. I write in my spare time, assuming it doesn’t overlap with happy hour. My favorite authors are Peter F. Hamilton and Kurt Vonnegut. I received a degree in history from Saint Anselm College in 1999 and have the beer stained flannel shirts to prove it. I write science fiction so that I can explore ideas deeply. The notion of a technological singularity has been tantalizing my mind since I read “The Singularity is Near” by Ray Kurzweil back when AI was something most folks did not think about at all. The notions of limitless self expression and how our ideas form our identity naturally latched onto the concept of a technological singularity in ways I didn’t expect. This was the philosophical basis of my first book: “The eom Expression: Beautiful Chaos.” Of course, being a fan of Kurt Vonnegut meant that the entire book also had to be a satire. I can barely boil pasta without having a satirical thought emerge, so writing an entire book devoid of satire is probably impossible for me. I’m on the internet. Feel free to reach out, ask questions or just say hi.
