Jones the War Whale

My take on the Jones the War Whale that you can find described in the Johnny Mnemonic novel by William Gibson.

Here is a short description of Jones from the William Gibson Fandom: "Jones is a cyborg dolphin. The navy used it in the War. They made him addicted to drugs in order to ensure his affiliation. He was modified with an articulated armor with crusted plates along his sides. Exposed sections of his body showed silver lesions. Twin deformities on either side of his skull had been engineered to house sensor units. The navy had him wired into an audiovisual display and he communicated with symbols. He served in the Pacific, using Squid to tap into the circuitry of enemy cyber mines and sweep them.

After the war, he was demobbed with his gear intact and put in Funland, as a "War Whale" attraction in a tank, where he swam clumsily. His eyes were ancient and sad. He communicated with an array of tricolor lights above the tank."

The dolphin is from Sketchfab and is the beautiful model created by Weeteam for the CARI’MAM project.
