Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Kickstarter successful and closed [ May 19, 2026 ]
The Kickstarter campaign for Not-Safe.Space Chapter 3 concluded successfully on April 21, and Scott extended the time allowed for late pledges until May 19.
Books have been ordered from the printer and Scott will be spending the next week or so setting up and sending the PDF files to those who asked for them.
(There are still six of you who have not responded to the survey asking for e-mail and snail-mail addresses, he'll do the best he can.)
Panel 1
Cut to Alyss narrating the story to her grandkids
Alyss: To make a long story a bit shorter, we carefully scanned the results, ran another test, scanned again, did some tweaks, then ran a fourth test to make sure we could apply this technique safely.
Panel 2
Cut back to the story. Nicole and Li are speaking with Julius and Alexandra via videophone
Julius: So you and Nicole think they can use your Displacement tech to swap out our moldy walls with clean ones ?
Panel 3
Reverse view so show Nicole and Li on the Weinstein’s screen. Nicole is beaming (and blushing).
Li: I have enough confidence in Nicole that we’ll assume full liability if anything goes wrong.
Li: And there’s no charge for this. It will be a demonstration project of our latest advance.
Panel 4
Switch back to the Situs’ POV
Alexandra: Ah, would you be offended if we asked you to do the upper floor first?
Julius: If that goes well we could do the rest of the house?
Panel 5
Two-shot Li and Nicole. Li looks a bit miffed but Nicole is all charm
Li: Um, sure, but I don’t think …
Nicole: But, of course! We understand your concern and will be the epitome of caution.
Panel 6
Cut back to the ‘present,’ Alan and Roderigo ‘thoughtsend to each other.
Alan: Does that sound like the Abuela Alyss we know?
Roderigo: I think some roles were switched there.
