Ravings at the Edge of Time

Versions of the Unexistent

When the mist of ages dissolves and the future plugs directly into the USB ports of metaphysics, Anemurium blinks back onto the radar. You open the Mediterranean 3.0 map — and see the living heart of a city pumping nanoplasma into the aqueducts of high-rise crypto-therms. There are no ruins here, only stairways ascending toward a dusty orbit — and elevators diving down to the sea, where jellyfish serve as courier drones.

Worlds That Never Were

In that fork of reality, the hesitant 7th-century earthquake never hit the red button; Arab raids drifted past, lured by fatter coasts. Anemurium, like a drop of digital amber, froze between epochs but never cracked. The Romans left behind the algorithm of urbanism, the Byzantines annotated it with lines of wind turbines, and the Ottomans added a couple of coffee-script columns to the code. By the 21st century, the city had become an Asian-Mediterranean Singapore: a free haven of prosthetic ideas, where basalt necropoleis serve as data centers cooled by the whispers of the sea.

Phantom Architectures

AI engines, starved for the past, render skyscraper-aqueducts: theater bones dressed in glass, and catapult towers rising from the forum, launching tourists into low Earth orbit. The amphitheater is cloaked in a photon veil. Quadcopters in Moorish patterns patrol the skies, logging in real-time chronicles how gryphons hacked the city Wi-Fi and now broadcast free fables from its depths.

Reality is Blurred

Through the haze of livestreams, you no longer know what’s broadcasting reality: QR mosaics glued to sarcophagi link either to museums or to shops for consciousness skin-mods. Archaeologists argue with architects: the former want to dig, the latter want to extend. An AI guide breaks in: “Please select simulation level.” You press “Hardcore”, and the alleys begin to rearrange themselves to match your pulse.

Echo in the Void

Walking the boardwalks between eras, you hear stones recalling what never happened to them. Summer storms roll in with the perfect hum of a rose-colored sea, and tombs glow in the bronze sunset as if awaiting one more upload into digital Eternity. And you understand: this ghost city, wrapped in LEDs and arche-archives, holds the boldest secret of all — it never broke, because we haven’t hit “Delete” yet.
