About the Book
This book is the result of an text-interpolation algorithm, written in the Java-variant Processing and based on an idea from Jorge Luis Borges’ book “The Library of Babel”, a infinite library that included “the minutely detailed history of the future, the archangels’ autobiographies, the faithful catalogues of the Library, thousands and thousands of false catalogues, the demonstration of the fallacy of those catalogues, the demonstration of the fallacy of the true catalogue, the Gnostic gospel of Basilides, the commentary on that gospel, the commentary on the commentary on that gospel, the true story of your death, the translation of every book in all languages, the interpolations of every book in all books.”
