WAIV, or "World Arcane Interweb Vibration is a special macrowave which is connected to the Source and flow throughout all matter. When it touches matter, it passes through it as it resonates, collecting and receiving "data". These small parcels of information become a part of the collective WAIV, and can be interpretted by specialized devices.

From the earliest COMMs units to the highly advanced WAIV/ COMM X, the technology that connects the world has been pioneering the communications industry since its invention. Social media platforms, movies and steam-shows, and powerful user-defined MODDs have all improved the quality of the WAIV experience.

Join along as we take a look at WAIV as a technology- from PADs to Consoles, we'll get an in-depth look at why WAIV technology is the most covetted in home entertainment products.

Discovery

The history of WAIV technology began when Meta-Scientists and Enchanters from a small developer group, known then as MagiCOMMs. The technology for early COMMs involved messages sent on macrowaves to transmitters, which would decode the information in real time. While this often produced scratchy quality audio recordings, the COMMs units were significant in the operations of several War fronts at the time.

COMMs were also initially prone to wear and tear, losing range and lifespan over time. A new product was necessary to improve the quality of calls and messages. MagiCOMMs was the forerunner of communications products of its era, asked to solve the riddle of the better communications device. Inspired by a special group dedicated to the research and development of the newest device, the company produced it's first ambitious project- the WAIV/ COMMs I.

The macrowaves used by COMMs were decidedly influenced by the subtle vibrations of a phenomenon known as the "World Arcane Interweb Vibration" as it interacts with matter; particularly, through means of electromagnetic radiation or the Aura. The waves bounce around and through, collecting "data" as it roams, which then joins the collective WAIV and can be interpreted by COMMs devices.

"Data" are the small parcels of information that collects together and forms the WAIV. By reading and decoding the data, it can be transmitted and received, or stored into a memory bank known as the "cloud core processor" (CCP) or simply "cloud".

This effective device had an improved quality of calls and messages, now with storing systems for keeping important COMMs transponders, and an inbox to retain messages the user might have missed.. While there was still some static, the noise was reduced immensely. In addition, minor video and photo capture capabilities were discovered. Unfortunately, an issue that plagues all WAIV products still affects the manufacturing of WAIV I COMMs units, causing stalls and a slow initial reception of the product.

On top of that, minor user issues continued to accrue, until MagiCOMMs began looking at ways to increase the proficiency of its new mainline devices. PADs and Tablets were initial options, and are still popular for their economy. Eventually, once WAIV/ II hit the market, solving many of the minor bugs and issues with WAIV/ I, reception for the product improved. As the WAIV expanded to include new WAIVsites and user created MODDs, MagiCOMMs saw a new future in their products.

To reflect the company's new standard, they finished their research and development projects with other nations and began running as a Corporation. WAIV/CORP is the pilgrim on the frontier of the communications industry, leading the way towards a brighter future with WAIV technology.

Access & Availability

Standard COMMs, PADS & Tablets
These basic devices performs a single function rather well. COMMs are able to send and receive voice calls and mesages. PADs are able to access the WAIV and send or receive text messages or video, but not audio. Tablets blend the basic features but are notorious for incredibly long charge times (4 hours, 2 hour charge time).

WAIV/COMMs
The WAIV/ COMM is the most common form of WAIV device, as it is ergonomical as well as economical compared to other devices. It can call and send text or video, includes user-defined features and advanced predictive systems. The Ultra Deluxe models are the most expensive, but they give the user a wide variety of options.

WAIV/ Casters & Consoles
The WAIV/ Caster was once a rare model, as the film-quality of the video capture technology in its process made exceptional movies and clips. Now, it has been made into a handheld device, much more common and practical. The WAIV/ Consoles were also enhanced, turning what were old receivers into fully integrated WAIV devices, capable of similar functions as earlier WAIV devices with added improvements on the core design. People tend to either have a reception model, for home viewing, or a performance model, for WAIV interaction.

WAIV/ Shaper
The WAIV/ Shaper is an enhanced model that is favored by Casters for its fully optimized Spell-programming capabilities. Top of the market, the WAIV/ Shaper allows for a fully immersive user experience, with advanced AI imprinting technology, this machine is able to produce extraordinary effects through the power of magical and technological programming.

WAIV/ Cameras & Printers
The WAIV/ Printer was the first of its design and as such, is quite common. Cameras became popular due to their portability and convenience. Now, 3D Printers are able to render full objects, in resins or molds, or other materials such as metal.

Manufacturing

WAIV/ CORP and other manufacturers of WAIV technologies are large factory operations with top-down structures. Transparency happens across the board and feedback is delivered back to the top, where new decisions are made by boards or a CEO (Corporate Entity Owner). The organizational structures tend to differ from each developer or company.

They hire Enchanters, Alchemists, and general factory laborers to construct their products. Hours and demands can be devestating, making these companies one of the highest for employee dissatisfaction and moral. Long hours are spent meticulously coding devices as workers monitor assembly lines managed by AI interfaces.

The products themselves are crafted from various materials procurred through merchant trade agreements and enterprising arrangements.

Individual descriptions for manufacturing requirements are included in the Sidebar.

Social Impact

Almost everyone has a WAIV device of some kind- be it a COMMs unit or a home Console, these devices are found everywhere. Many different kinds of culture, from pop cultures, indie cultures and media cultures, have grown around the use of these products. Users have their own EMOTI language formed of heiroglyphs, bloggers use WAIVsites to communicate on forums and polls, shopping and banking are all done through WAIV transactions, and mass media broadcasters use complicated networks of WAIV devices to reach their desired audiences. Even indie developers have earned acclaim on such sites as WAIViber (or Vibe) and MEMACOMMs.

Music industries benefit from the complexities of the Shaper as a mixer and instrument, and MODDers enjoy the finely-crafted machines they create using the advanced spell-programming and AI UI features.

As the future of magic and technology continues to develop, all kinds of new and exciting WAIV products are constantly increasing the connectiveness and expanding the cultures around WAIV devices. It isn't any wonder that catchy slogans like "Ride the WAIV" and "Find your Vibe" resonates with cultures all around the world!
