Ray And Molly

Our Lady Peace

Ray: Anyway, you do look amazing



Molly: You say that every time we meet



Ray: I mean you look 20 again, only more beautiful than at the start of the book



Molly: I know that's how you'd want me



Ray: Ok, you were an attractive young woman when I first met you and you still project yourself as a beautiful young woman at least when I'm with you



Molly: Thanks



Ray: Are you saying that you're a machine now?



Molly: A machine? That's really not for me to say it's like asking me if I'm brilliant or inspiring



Ray: I guess the word machine in 2099 doesn't have quite the same connotations that it has here in 1999



Molly: It's hard for me to recall now







Ray: Oh well



Molly: I'm really just dabbling but creating music is a great way for me to stay close with Jeremy and Emily



Ray: Creating music sounds like a good thing to do with your kids even if they are almost 90 years old. So could I hear it?



Molly: Uh I'm afraid you wouldn't understand it



Ray: So it requires enhancement to understand?



Molly: Yes most of it does. For starters, the symphonies and frequencies that a mosh can't hear and it has much too faster tempo and it uses musical structures that a mosh could never follow



Ray: Can't you create art for non-augmented humans? I mean there's still a lot of depth possible. Consider Beethoven, he wrote almost two centuries ago and we still find his music exhilarating



Molly: Yes there is a genre of music. All the arts actually, where we create music and art that a mosh is capable of understanding



Ray: And then you play mosh music for moshes?



Molly: hmm now that's an interesting idea. I suppose we could try that, although moshes are not that easy to find anymore. It's really not necessary though, we can certainly understand what a mosh is capable of understanding. The point though is to use the mosh limitations as an added constraint.



Ray: Sort of like
