Titi Tech (Tee-tee Tek)

Titi Tech is the name of an intersellar communication system used throughout Kantostara to send messages across long distances. These messages can be in the form of full on holographic image and voice, but that is more expensive, and there is a bit of a delay depending on the distance between sender and receiver. It also requires both parties to have access to more elaborate equipment to facillitate sending and receiving this more complex form of message. For these reasons, most of the messages coming through the Titi Tech system are in written form, similar to texting, which costs next to nothing and can be easily accomplished with ordinary comm links.   The brain child of Kaleidogos, who is the Singer of Songs who rules Astrocyan Realm #2, Titi Tech was introduced to the people of Kantostara soon after interstellar travel began as a way of encouraging communication between distant worlds. It relies on the principle of cosmic quantum resonance employing a number of identical tone key crystal matrices strategically placed throughout the galaxy to amplify and direct the vibratory signals of the communication system.   The Titi Tech system got its name because the tone key crystal matrix beacons, that were constructed and positioned by Bane'ile engineers under the guidance of Kaleidogos, were reminiscent of Titi Tetu which were the stone obelisks on the Bane'ile home world that were used to convey messages between the migratory tribes of the Bane'ile in a practice known as tagging.   In the beginning, Titi Tech was mostly used by world leaders and large commercial organizations to facilitate diplomacy, cultural exchange and trade among the many worlds of Kantostara, but now it is commonly used by individuals as well. People who do a lot of interstellar traveling and those who have loved ones living or traveling off world frequently use it to communicate. It has also helped the Bane'ile practice of tagging to proliferate throughout Kantostara which has even given rise to a pictographic messaging language called Tag.
