A passage from “Implied Spaces” by Walter Jon Williams
“By the time you’ve got all your computations done and dumped all the energy
into inflating a wormhole from the quantum foam…” Aristide made little
rubbing gestures with his fingers as if he were sprinkling alchemical
powders into an alembic. “…and you’ve stabilized the wormhole gate with
negative mass-matter, then inflated a soupcon of electrons and protons
into a pocket universe, complete with a flaming gas ball in the center…
Once you’ve got your misty mountain range and your moisty river valley,
what goes between the mountain range and river valley is implied by the
architecture, and is in fact a high desert plain, like the Gobi, only far
less attractive…”
- Aristide lecturing to Daljit
