This is a basic idea and it is called "The Ritual of the Fly" Inspired by this journal entry: "This afternoon, a fly landed on my computer screen - right on the face of someone in a paused video. I waved it off, expecting it to flee. It didn’t. It returned to the exact same spot. Again. And again.
Annoyance rose. I moved my hand. It danced in the air. Still, it landed precisely where it had started.
Then it got strange.
As it perched once more on the face on my screen, I moved my mouse. The cursor slid next to it, then under it.
The fly twitched. Felt it. As if it sensed the digital presence beneath its belly.
It jumped - just a few centimeters. My cursor chased it. We danced. I traced a slow circle around it. It flinched and darted again. A digital predator and a winged trespasser, locked in ritual.
Finally, it landed in the top-right corner.
I moved the cursor carefully. Not to scare it - just to “draw.” One big cross - right over the fly (well, technically underneath it). The fly paused. Then lifted. And vanished.
That was two hours ago."
