Trusci

The Trusci are ancient, predating humanity, as we know it, by eons.

Now, the Trusci are incorporeal beings existing in a matrix of pure energy. But that was not always the case.

When the primary star of the Trusci home-world was about two reach the end of its natural life in cataclysmic style, they began the search for an alternative.

The Trusci tinkered with biological specimens on hundreds, perhaps thousands of planets.

Key Trusci discovery: A key finding of the Trusci was that Mind and Brain are not the same thing. They are both physically and conceptually different.

• Brain is physical, biological, chemical or bio-mechanical.

• Mind is non-physical consciousness, data and programs (which are really just more data) operating on a bio-mechanical processor.

• Note: The Brain is a multi-threaded parallel processing machine suited to approximation and solution of highly complex, multidimensional problems. Silicon-based computers, on the contrary, handle relatively simplistic problems with mind numbing speed.
