Singularities have fascinated me for a long time. At their core, they're a phenomenon where we step beyond the known laws of physics. But a singularity has many faces — it can also mean an event after which nothing is ever the same again. Lately the idea has gained fame thanks to astrophysicists and Sir Roger Penrose's black-hole research. Black holes were first implied by Einstein, who pushed his General Theory of Relativity to its limits — yet he refused to believe there could be a place in space-time (to put it simply) where the curvature tensor tends to infinity. What does that mean? Roughly: you can't draw a geodesic through the singularity. Why not just say mass or density goes to infinity? For that, I'll point you to better material than my own.
Enough physics — I'm not qualified to explain it cleanly. :) To me, a singularity is an exception to the rules that govern the world. There's also the so-called "technological singularity": the moment machines become more intelligent than us and no longer need us. Sounds scary? Maybe. But who says they'd have to turn on us? We don't know yet.
Across both parts of Singularity, I tell the story of a highly advanced civilization that sets out to answer the most fundamental questions. The black hole is the last bastion of the unknown — the final hope of finding some deeper bottom to this world. The absolute, perhaps, or God? Even after science has mapped most of reality, some existential questions remain open. So a group of daredevils travels in one direction only: into the heart of a supermassive black hole — the singularity. We get to live their journey, a privilege their own civilization will never share. But remember: no information ever comes back from beyond the event horizon. ;)
On the technical side, the irreplaceable Rafał Paluszek handled the visuals — my faithful companion on the most tangled stories, and the reason you can feel this adventure so fully. I took care of the music and sound production. Taught by the lessons of my earlier releases, this is far better material. If you find it worthwhile, consider a small purchase on Bandcamp.
