A Trilogy of Sorts

Working on an idea that is as of yet entitled Complex, which is to be a study of free will and psychology, intended to complete the trilogy started by the original Italian Job and continued by Inception: Michael Caine in a heist with an ending that is ambiguous due to wobble. I don't think Michael Caine is still going to be around by the time I'm finished with it; if not maybe I'll name the main character Maurice Micklewhite, or even Michael 101 Dalmatians, in tribute. Here are the teasers for each of the three in (the) sequence:

1. If you could press a button to make world peace, would you?


2. We ran bravely in these new worlds, for what was both an infinite and infinitesimal amount of time. We created new laws of physics and mathematics for ourselves, seeing what would happen if rational and irrational numbers were swapped, or were the same thing, seeing what a circle would look like if pi equaled anything other than pi. We ran these simulations as if they were a computer programs, only there were actual souls down on our little worlds, to be saved or damned through their choices in sinful worlds that were not real. And then we awoke, we were thrust backing into our mortal bodies, only now with the knowledge that infinite and finite are the exact same thing, two synonyms to express the same concept.


3. To tell if a robot is sentient or not, one needn’t go through the pseudoscience of the Turing test. One need only ask it if it’s sentient. But what if it lies?

So, it's a trilogy of sorts to complete a trilogy of sorts. This idea... is more Inception than I had originally thought.
