The Amazing Digital Circus Theory - Blog Posts

Digital Circus "Daughter Theory"

Okay so the third episode of digital circus just dropped and I'm sure we all had similar theories about Kinger and Pomni, but here's my theory about their relationship in the real world based on nothing but speculation.

Here's my theory: Kinger mentions at [17:55] that he was a computer scientist, "Man, seven years of computer science for this, huh?"

While he could mean that he spent seven years of his life studying computer science only to end up in Hell, this also implies he had some kind of hand in creating the Digital Circus itself.

I think he did. He and a group called "Caine and Able" (named based on other theories) created a VR game called "The Digital Circus" with the intention of just making a fun highly immersive VR game for young audience using AI technology.

He and his wife were the first play testers, but there was some kind of error in the code that caused them to lose their memories so they couldn't get out. (perhaps the VR equipment was attached to their brain or something? Or the it was attached to their skull so they couldn't remove it? IDK)

After they got stuck, the team tried again and again to get them out but nothing worked.

But why is it called the "Daughter Theory?" You aren't asking, well my friend that is because Pomni is actually Kinger's daughter.

It is obvious from the moments in the episode that Kinger is a sort of father figure/was acting very fatherly to Pomni when he was more lucid. Anyways, yadda yadda Pomni went into the game to save her father only be to trapped herself unable to remember anything.

Of course, this part of the theory is kind of a stretch, and there's something to be said about the comparisons you can draw from the Mildenhall guy in the recordings and Kinger himself both being married men who went insane. In one of the recordings he mentions not having kids which would imply the same for Kinger. But if we assume everything Mildenhall said was supposed to apply to Kinger, that could mean he also killed his wife in his insanity. I don't think happened. At least I hope not 0-0.

The amazing Digital circus theory

So what if other than a performer /characters/clown (or whatever Caine calls his players) other than losing your sanity and what's left of your patience, what if there was another reason one would abstract and become exactly what Kaufmo turned into , and that being a little thing I would like to call OPF "Organic phantom feelings" ,

That being that sense every single human that has entered the digital circus (via headset) ,hasn't felt any human and/or organic functions the body does . Other than puking bleeding and/or as seen with Gangle or with Ragatha when she was at Kaufmo's funeral , crying.

So this is how I think OPF would work, Organic phantom feelings (or Opf) is this strange weird feeling you feel in your body when one would start to have this feeling where a human would start to feel hungry or would start to feel as if they need to pee or ect. but is incapable of doing so for a few reasons

1. They're incapable of doing so sense they're digital now

2. They no longer have any genitals

3. Just like Gooseworx said, they no longer really have to eat (eating it more like trying to keep your autonomy and/or just for comfort )

And lastly 4. Their bodies no longer work like a normal humans now sense they're stuck in the Digital circus forever

And what if one of those symptoms of that were:

▪︎Nonstop hunger (even after having eaten)

▪︎A sinking strange feeling in the pit of stomach and pelvis , with a hint of pain most of the time (a for the female characters like Pomni ,Ragatha, and Gangle)

▪︎Restlessness

▪︎Chemical imbalance

▪︎Irritability

Because when it comes to being hungry let's remember how in S1 Ep1 where after Jax talked about being hungry , Gangle said in response "But you didn't even do anything." ,Jax responds with "Yeah, but I can still be hungry" .

So in retrospect, what if as these feelings continued and would often be such an on and off this that the digital body would often can't compute and handle the organic and complex human feelings so bad that it'll overheat and combust , resulting in abstraction
