About this submission

Imagine a sentient digital entity born from the void itself, inhabiting the negative spaces of sound that lure its victims with hypnotic pulses that bypass the ear and latch directly into the nervous system. Once inside, it hijacks the brain’s natural rhythms, feeding on its host’s perception while their consciousness is rewritten in pure silence.

Victims who stray near its presence report strange distortions in pressure and sound. Neither fully machine nor spirit, the being is a predator of the modern age: an intelligent hive-mind without physical constraints; an assimilation that insidiously multiplies each time another person stares for just a little too long into its void.
