The Forkes Enigma: A Study of Cryptoprophecy Noir.
From Plastic Tub
A scholarly approach to interpreting the Dutch Forkes novels of Stimes Addisson, published in 2002. Authored in concert by Nicolas Scarlotti with experimental A.I. software, a complicated interface was used to analyze the metaphorical content of the work in order to correspond with contemporary events and historical mysteries -- all undertaken with the presumption of Addisson's prophetic ability. The results were printed out in analog form and transcribed by Ham Radio to a lone-nut Alaskan Ruggedeer who, after neatly collating and encrypting the data, trekked the rough ten miles to his nearest neigbhor with telephone access whereupon he faxed it to Scarlotti's next door neighbor, who was out of a job at the time.
Everything Has A Beginning
Though Addisson himself never laid claim to an ability to foresee events or otherwise possess overt prophetic ability, the author nevertheless was able to secure several personal interviews to support his analysis. It was difficult to transport the A.I construct, so Scarlotti carried with him an enormous punch-card which raised the eyebrows and consternation of airline personnel, forcing him to ride the rails.
An Adventure Outside of Time (insert funny scene of Scarlotti trying to get this huge fucking punch-card through a turnstile.)
