I never finished Claw. Didn't even read a majority of Claw. Or a plurality of Claw. But I will say that Wildbow is one of very few authors from whom the basic setting conceit of Claw- a genre-world in the vein of Worm where instead of superheroes, every early-oughts war-on-terror-influenced Jack-Bauerlike airport novel primetime technothriller is happening at once, one-after-the-other, forever- sounds even remotely tolerable. In a vacuum that kind of thing sounds like an insufferable right-wing jackoff session, and a huge portion of what made Claw's implementation of that idea so great is the frog-boil reveal that that's what's going on- the dawning realization over the first arc and change that these characters are living at the margins of a society as cartoonishly dysfunctional and tumultuous as that whole fictional space implies. It was great.

Let's talk about Seek's arc titles! The technology or computer angle has been apparent, but the last three arc titles are all settings you'd see on a sound mixer.

CONTROL in the sense of the control room output for monitoring the recording, SEND in the sense of the aux send output for creating a separate mix for the performer by e.g. silencing their own input or for creating an effects loop, and now MUTE in fairly straightforward sense of muting a particular or group of tracks/channels/inputs.

(I don't have a specific association with HACKing and a sound mixer)

The obvious thematic connection this sparks for me is the sound mixer's role in connecting the physical and digital, similar to how onboards function for everyone in Seek
