Resonance (for those who've completed it)
« on: 12 Jul 2012, 12:33 »
I couldn't help wondering whether Renu was in fact an android / replicant of some kind.  Did anyone else get that impression?  (It also occurred that Vince might be having a Philip K. Dick moment and leave us guessing about this for years before finally telling us...)

Or maybe it's just my warped imagination that came up with this idea?!?!

I'm not sure if Dick's androids were able to procreate (they rather had parents-child relationship with other androids, but it was purely psychological) and Reno has a child with her.

But was it her child?  Was it a real child?

She just didn't come across to me as being quite human... but perhaps that was just me after all!!

For me she was more like an autistic genius than unhuman; just living computer.

I did wonder about her being a savant, I must admit.
