*//  LOL -- project background  //* {loop.mode}


on jan 12th 2003, in Phoenix/Arizona, a 21-year old computer addict
[known as "ripper"] dies of an overdosis of prescription drugs while
chatting on the internet.

soon after this tragic event, a text file containing a transcription of
the dialogs that occured in the chatroom appeared on numerous websites.
The acronym "LOL" (which stands for "laughing out loud", or "lots of
laughs") appears to be by far the most frequent expression in this
dialogs.

re-processing the semantic data recorded before, during and after
ripper's death, the N3KROZOFT MORD multimedia group expands the network
tragedy into a caustic ectoplasmic seance.

*//  ?UBIK?  //*


Handbook: That made a long time that I sought the means of making a 
"contemporary" science fiction film - what is very difficult today, 
humanity at this point being engaged in one is delirious of 
technological possiblities that the concept of science fiction in 
oneself becomes redundant. From where undoubtedly stagnation of the 
literary production in this field, which is reflected in the thinning 
down of the public and the publishers. It will be also noted that many 
the "large" science-fiction novels, written in years 60-70, proceed 
between 1990 and 2010... One is thus "in full inside", and it is 
necessary to adopt our consequently point of view.

- We would thus live a time when science fiction and "social realism" 
meet?

¬ During the winter [1969], the abuse of amphetamines sent Dick to the 
hospital where one diagnosed serious renal and pancreatic lesions. 
Hardly left, it started again. It started to write a novel of which it 
knew only the title, borrowed from that who had become his preferred 
musician, John Dowland: its airs and parts for lute are the most 
poignant expression of the melancholy élisabéthaine. At the beginning 
of Flow, my Tears ( Run, my tears ), somebody awakes private of his 
identity. Nobody recognizes this man celebrates the day before, his 
papers do not correspond any more to nothing, any trace of him 
disappeared. He is nothing any more.
