@ilinx:~$ Adin Fassrol
Professor Fassrol was widely known as a pioneer in the application of cybernetics methodologies to anthropology and mythology. His visionary approach made possible the maturation of what now we call cyber- or virtual ethnology. He was one of the main researchers to criticize the occultist wing of the new discipline led by Echidna Stillwell, however, due to the pressure of academic institution his work is now remembered as essential voice during the golden age of Virtual Anthropology, nowdays working in totally different ways. During the 70s professor Fassrol found the chair in experimental semiotics of the Harvard institute representing a nomad figure in a usually ortodox environment.

Disclaimer

The story you're reading is a work of theory-fiction based on the concept of 'pataphysiscs' and/or 'hyperstition' where the characters and events, real or fictional, are considered equally existent sources of change in our reality.


+ + +

Context

+

This project is the practical continuation of my MA thesis Out-of-Hardware Experience: Consciousness and Software where software is understood in its capacity to provide a spatio-temporal matrix on top of which a self can experience a new phenomenal world. Furthermore, at the end of the thesis I introduce the concept of 'language maze' as the intertwining of languages intended as all the symbolic signifiers which characterize both humans and machines symbolic grounds. Ilinx is the practical attempt to represent this theories, a new world of experience existing in the convergence of consciousness and software, of natural languages and computer codes.

Main Narrative

+

The story of Ilinx takes place in the (theory-)fictional universe created by the Cybernetic Culture Research Units (CCRU) which is itself based on the fictional universe of H. P. Lovecraft. For the main narrative I've mostly re-edited and mixed Lovecraft's text 'The Call of the Cthulhu' with the part-2 of 'Ccru Writings 1997-2003' called 'Cthulhu Club' in the edition published by Time Spiral Press in 2015. The concept of ilinx, however, comes from a different source, the text 'Man, Play and Games' on game theory by Roger Caillois.

Trent was oblivious to Fassrol's expedition to the N'ma island and profoundly shocked, she explained me that 20 years before they were close friends but a series of events that culminated with the foundation of the Miskatonic Virtual University, in the early 70s led to their complete separation.
She was particularly disturbed by the fact that despite his well-known opposition to Echidna Stillwell's methods, the professor was following exactly the trails left behind by Stillwell himself fifty years before, and that after that trails he started to chase the footprints of Cecil Curtis managing to trace back the original location of the Katak temple. The same temple where the legent of 'Mad Dog' Curtis blurs into total madness.

After a more detailed observation of the encraved stone, Linda's face contracted in an even more gloomy and thoughtful expression mumbling apparently disconnected words. Later she explained to me that in Stillwell account on Mu's folklore there is a story concerning a certain Tchattuk stealing something from Katak and that probably Fassrol belived that Ilinx was what Nma tribes called what-is-lost. Linda continued explaining how in N'ma animism the function of their cerimonies based on dream sorcery are ment to re-enact Tchattuk's stealing, with the belief that the splitting of the cosmical order of time produced a multi-temporal matrix, or templex, permitting the Old Ones to flow in different directions and not collapse in a single point, called by them, Teotwawki·
