matrix at the Goblin Throne

Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified matrix as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

matrix is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. matrix is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.
