Origin[]
In 1968, the British musical Oliver! became a major motion picture in Great Britain. But in the USSR, a different foray into film was created. Mathematician Nikolai Konstantinov was eager to find a way to calculate and graph the moment of an object on a computer, in order to improve scientific work. With assistance from Victor Minahkin and Vladimir Ponomarenko, Konstantinov designed the very first computer generated imagery - a cat. Konstantinov's collar, which belonged to his own cat at the time, became imbued with the program's special characteristics.
The Disney film “Oliver and Company” was inspired by this artifact.
Effects[]
Whenever an organism wears the collar, the body can move via computers and allow digital teleportation. Over usage can burn out the body, however.
