Heikeji 黑科技
The term 黑科技 (Heikeji) was coined during the early decades of the 21st century, referring to the opacity in the working processes of the ever-accelerating technologies relating to AI, surveillance, and cryptography. This relic, recovered in the ruins of Neo-Shanghai, represents a now-lost application of these concepts. It's use now obscure to us, it perhaps was an aesthetic object, an evolution of the Chinese Box, representing a dark mirror to a form of Chinoiserie, in which Western views of the inscrutability of Chinese thought, culture and technology are reflected in its harsh and uncanny aggressiveness.
