Somehow this board seems like a good place to look for someone to possibly help out with some technobabblings. I'm working on a low-budget sci-fi series. I'm trying to make up a writers 'bible' that will guide collaborators on the functioning of the technology for the show, sprinkling it with big words and concepts. I've got a lot of it down, but I've hit something of a rut when it comes to the computing section.

I want something really out there. Something which sounds plausible, but perhaps hasn't been implemented yet. I don't know. I mean right now I'm working along the lines of massively parallel quantum processors with optronic base-m hyper-boolean logic, but that doesn't really say anything does it? Any takers? I will credit you if I use your idea...

Does it have to make sense? Or doesn't the budget stretch to that? 8)

You can't go wrong with the Illudium Pu-36 Explosive Space Modulator.

I'dd tell you about it, but my cognitive matrix is dysfunctioning.

It'd really be nice if it made sense. As for the Pu-36 Explosive Space Modulator: I think it may be a bit too advanced for the show. One of those unbalanced technologies.

That's the Q-36 modulator.

You work for the BBC, don't you?

Well since I'm getting everything else second hand allready, I certainly wouldn't expect the latest and greatest space modulator, so a PU-36 would do just fine if I could only get my hands on one.

Not that any of this helps me with my quest for advanced computation theory technobabble.

It's NOT "Q!" Marvin CLEARLY pronounces it "PEW!"
