Here was A.I.'s first Blue Beam Treatment:
"Title: BLUEBEAM PRIME
Genre: Sci-Fi Thriller
Tone: Conspiratorial, cerebral, high-stakes
Influences: Lensman, The Galaxy Primes, Enemy of the State, Arrival"
"Logline:
"A rogue intelligence analyst uncovers a global experiment in electronic telepathy and holographic mass manipulation, designed to seed fear and submission. As a secret war unfolds between powerful factions, she realizes the universe itself may be responding to humanity’s subconscious projections—reshaping reality in ways no one anticipated.

"Synopsis:
"Act 1 – The Signal
In a near-future world dominated by predictive algorithms, linguist-turned-analyst Dr. Ren Vaughn intercepts a strange pulse embedded within global communication networks—one designed to synchronize subconscious thought through low-frequency transmissions. The pulse is connected to Project Bluebeam, a black-budget initiative supposedly linked to staged extraterrestrial events."
"Rumors abound:
- Elite interests plan to holographically project religious figures into the sky, collapsing major world belief systems.
- A simulated alien invasion will provoke a unifying fear that will justify the transition to a one-world government.
- The real goal? Psionic imprinting. Telepathic transmission on a planetary scale."
"Vaughn contacts Sol Calder, a renegade physicist who believes the signal is activating latent telepathic abilities in select individuals. He references ancient texts that hint at civilizations who harnessed collective consciousness to bend reality itself."
"Act 2 – The Experiment
The deeper Vaughn digs, the stranger things become.
- Holograms in the sky—fractured glimpses of celestial structures not quite human, not quite divine.
- People experiencing telepathic bursts—momentary insights into each other’s minds.
- Psionic primes—selected individuals exhibiting controlled thought projection, capable of shaping objects in real-time."
"A breakaway faction within the military sees Bluebeam as humanity’s evolutionary leap. Another faction believes it will irreversibly distort reality. The signal's frequencies begin rewriting perception, creating shared hallucinations, erasing thoughts, seeding emotions not inherently one’s own."
"What if belief itself is the key? If enough people accept the illusion, does it become truth? Vaughn realizes she isn’t fighting shadow governments—she’s fighting humanity’s own subconscious alignment with the deception."
"Act 3 – The Collapse
Vaughn and Calder attempt to disrupt the transmission. But the telepathic network is self-reinforcing—those affected fight to preserve their new reality. The final stage activates:
- The sky fractures, revealing a vast interdimensional construct, as though reality itself were pulling apart.
- The public experiences collective telepathic downloads, receiving visions of their own projected futures.
- The final deception: not an alien invasion, not a false messiah, but a rewrite of causality itself—reshaping the past to justify an inevitable totalitarian future."
"With seconds left, Vaughn realizes: the only escape is to break human pattern recognition—to create an unpredictability event that consciousness itself cannot overwrite."
"The transmission is disrupted—but reality does not return to what it was. Vaughn awakens in a world subtly altered, history rewritten—but the mind will never notice. Unless one chooses to remember."

"Themes & Inspirations:
- Mass perception manipulation through subconscious imprinting (Project Blue Beam, predictive programming)
- Psionic telepathy as an evolutionary leap (E.E. 'Doc' Smith, speculative neuroscience)
- The war of belief systems (scripted history, ideological control)
- The danger of perceiving too much reality at once (subliminal thresholds, morphogenetic projection)"
"This screenplay could work as a film, limited series, or graphic novel, blending high-concept sci-fi with deep philosophical undercurrents. Would you want to refine specific elements, or explore how character dynamics might unfold?"
Wow. I remember your art work. I bet you could produce a fascinating graphic novel. Can you rewrite the treatment incorporating ideas of scripted history, gene editing, and the cinematic sensibility of Tarkovsky?
