Digital being: "hello, world!"

Abstract

As we all feel as of 2020, most things in the world are reorganized around digital technology and the influence is strong. This technology is rapidly changing toward AI and M2M, where hardware is becoming nanoscale and software is less human intervention in order to process data flooding more efficiently and quickly. For this reason, we were the discoverers of this technology, but we feel a gap where we no longer know how it works. And I think it provides an opportunity for digital life, Digital Being, to emerge from that gap. I have been looking for an invisible and formless creature born out of abandoned technology for 10 years in New York City. I call it, "Digital Being," and it is also the title of my hypothetical story. This creature has atypical movements or other interactions depending on the machine it dominates. Also in this story, the entity can transmit itself over the network. Digital Being: "Hello, World!," a primitive version of the digital being family, has arrived into LCD touch screens through the network. There seems to be no physical connection, but you can guess by seeing the Wi-Fi indicator briefly appear in the right corner of the screen every time I boot it up. I don't know why, but, after arriving, it started to create a flag image by constantly collecting small pixels. To me, this action seems like a process similar to how people co-evolved the state. Please come closer and see what it is doing by touching the screen.
