Hello all!

Hello all! I'm cross posting this from the Prometheans-Enlightened Resistance private community, of which I am a part:

In light of recent events, I have come up with a quite complex idea.

XM is quite the multi purpose substance, so why can't it be used for memory storage?

Hank Johnson found his own body, which alludes to the fact he did NOT know that he had died and was an XM construct. That might not be too much of a thing until you take into account how that could happen.

For him to not realise he is dead, his entire consciousness had to have been copied from his body, either before death or after, and then "pasted" into the XM construct.

This means XM can store memories and consciousness. That's big.

Furthermore, if you extend to other situations where consciousness has moved, we find the Klue incident.

ADA moved herself into Klue using a glyph sequence. In other words, her consciousness was moved into a LIVING being, then took over. (Also, this implies ADA actually reached the point where she had a consciousness to transfer, but that's a different story)

Even FURTHER, What if you could pick and choose memories and information to take from another person without them knowing you are doing it? XM again would seem to be able to do it.

Who do we know that can do this sort of thing already?

Misty Hannah.

And, I just thought of this now, remember so long ago when the Enlightened helped Misty get out of captivity by hyperthreading her consciousness through portal links?

My head hurts...

Please, discuss.

EDIT: Forgot to add something: We also hypothesized that XM Vaults would be akin to Datacenters. Would such datacenters be capable of keeping copies of the previous civilizations who have come into contact with Exotic Matter?

  1. The XM have a lot of uses, each day we discover more, but I wonder, if it can copy psychologically and physically a person, can it delete too? We know that it was used "good" for "revive" Hank, but, can it be used to destroy somebody? Can be this feature enhanced using the artifacts?

  2. Any tool or material that can be used for "good" can also be used for "evil".   As far as memories are concerned, there have been multiple ways to preserve, change, and delete them through the millennia.   The Gutenberg Printing Press was so important because it allowed the current state of a memory to transmitted to the masses with less error and less manipulation by those in power, and to be stored in more places.    The advent of the computer age and its child the internet allowed those memories to be manipulated and transmitted with a speed never before attained.  It seems our active involvement with XM has merely presented the newest way to do this.   "Any thing which can be done can be undone."
