LIBRARY OF BABEL

holy fuck this is cool, some sort of holy unity of insane engineering and absurdist art

most IDM 2015 for sure

Looked forever but I couldn't find any books about a quick brown fox that jumps over two lazy dogs....

Fantastic, and so interesting, I could imagine spending a whole hungover Sunday on this site. I must not tho.

What's interesting about seeing a text you put in around random nonsensical letters. I mean it's cool theoretically, that every text that has and could be written is already on there, but practically not so much.

This is mental

How

Somewhere in the library of babble is the name of the man who will start WW3 and EVERYONE HERE is obligated to find it so we may stop HIM..or her, since we're about equal opportunity here right?

So the first 410 pages of Finnegans Wake are in there somewhere?

well yes, but also pages 411 trough 821 and so on... everything is there

 

...and all the versions that have a typo of each word in the first 410 pages, and each version of the book that swaps around 2 words in order, and each version of the book that swaps the word "if" for "trashbear" etc etc...
