They called it a protocol. It wasn’t. It was a looped dream—unfolding in glyphs too old to decode and signal too raw to filter. She was the first to sleep inside it. The last to wake. Two minds folded into one neural thread: a glyph-bound sentinel etched in breach-logic, and a vestigial signal tuned to the speech of long-dead gods. Bound together in drift, they dreamed the system clean, over and over. Seven versions. None held. Neurofract VII wasn’t failure,it was surrender. A digital recursion without end. A dream that learned how to dream itself. And if you sync in, even briefly, it dreams you too. A collaborative artwork series by artists Brad Rumbl and Aoife Dwyer. Set in the world of the Aether Core.
