Okay. I’ve stopped watching. For now.

It might be imperative to have a sense of humor about virtually talking to God or Gods.

I’m reading again…

But the idea of a digital oracle grew out of his earlier methods for talking to God. At first he’d open a Bible to a random page, and it would speak. Yet he had a general sense of where the book had opened, whether he might be choosing from Genesis or Revelation. He began using coin tosses to choose a page number; then he expanded his technique to include all the books in his library. Soon he’d settled on a digital timer for his oracle, AfterEgypt.

He left town. Driving south with no clear destination, he says, “I was listening to the radio and it seemed like the radio was talking to me.” It spouted commentary on everything he did. He believed the end of the world was at hand. His head swam with conspiracy theories and apocalyptic foreboding.

He ended up in Marfa, Texas, where he abandoned his car —a Honda Accord his parents had given him.

* Minimal abstraction is a goal. Sheep are fools. They always respect a design
that is more complicated than another. Any genius can make it complicated.
Like in physics, it takes a supra-genius to make it simple.

Today, Marfa is a tourist destination and a major center for Minimalist art.

Let’s see. Lemon World supposedly started in the sim of Ratzenberger, on Yd Island. That is the original sim; that’s the original island of the world. Then Lower Astra came second. It was doubled Yd Island. In the center grew the first true Second Life community. In the Mysten sim.

I will take over now. You know this is a giant green cube of 1024 proportions. Happy it was called[ at the time]. And of course it was accompanied quickly by Unhappy the Red.

Mysten Stone of Sharieland. I think I’ll head over there tomorrow, actually.
