![In Thomas Cole's, "Prometheus Bound", "the landscape is appropriately desolate; above Prometheus are imposing, snowy mountains and a cold sky. The figure himself blends in with the rocks, a conscious decision of the artist that adds an element of surprise for the viewer when the figure is finally seen; the viewer's surprise emphasizes Prometheus's desperate and desolate situation.[1] Upon further inspection a vulture is seen lower in the painting, swooping up toward Prometheus. The raptor comes at dawn, when the planet Jupiter (the "morning star") is seen in the sky.[2] As the Roman god Jupiter is the equivalent of Zeus, Prometheus's antagonist symbolically watches over him." - Wikipedia](/proxy/post_attachment/1156442/b8bb8a8104.jpg "In Thomas Cole's, \"Prometheus Bound\", \"the landscape is appropriately desolate; above Prometheus are imposing, snowy mountains and a cold sky.

![One could be in the room with you now, just to your left. You could be seeing it right nowâbut from this second to the next, youâll forget that you did. If you managed to jot down a note, the paper would look blank to you afterward.
These entities can feed on your most cherished memories, the things that make you youâand youâll never even know anything changed.
They can turn you into a living ghostâmake it so youâre standing next to your spouse, screaming in their ear, and they wonât know youâre there.
Theyâre predators equipped with the ultimate camouflage, living black holes for information, able to consume our very memories of their existence.
And they arenât just feeding on us. Theyâre invading.
But how do you fight an enemy when you can never even know that youâre at war? How do you contain something you canât record or remember?
