:read: I admire ultra short stories. :rip:

 

PS Is there a humbler forum, to put thiz thread in, anywhere around here?

 

Theres first the point: "."

 

What then? : "0"?

 

Eventually we will run into the circle: :circle:

 

PS Can there be circular or finite "Time"?

 

Exercise 0: Prove, or otherwisely show, that the flow of time is an effect of rotation.

A good story should begin...Well...Where?

 

I thought of the very simple sentence:

 

1 = "Once upon a time, very very long ago,

a Primordeal Cloud decided to change

into a Solar System."

 

2 Now it remains to work out the n cliffhangers all the way down to sigurdV

declaring the world to be his Chamber Pot...The rest will presumably follow :)

 

3 Some foes or threats needs to be created in the process

 

4 All the tools sigurdV uses while defeating the enemy

(By spreeding whimsical entries in Hypography!?)

should meanwhile be explained to the no longer so uneducated reader.

 

Any problems so far?

 

5 The tricky part is introducing our hero to Hypography... Let nature give him some extraordinary but not supernatural powers, making him defeat his REAL FOE. Them obstinate readers r at most under the influence of the foe and let sigurdV handle them as patients suffering from... well... hmmmm...

PS Is there a humbler forum, to put thiz thread in, anywhere around here?

"The Artists Weightroom" forum, to which this thread is not moved, was created for such stuff - the silly claims forum is intended for post making claims that the majority of thoughtful people can, but the poster apparently cannot, understand are, for lack of a better word, silly.

I wont be moved? I can stay in here? Fine with me...Thanx :)

 

Here I write no book!

At most Im devising a scenario...

I never wrote a book before,I doubt I will ever do so.

 

Looking at books i notice some contain some code or such that the hero step by step solves... In most cases its pure fiction involved, but why not move closer to reality: I think I found a way or a method to solve paradoxes, Why not let that be the key element of the story?

 

Stories can be very silly, silly so they are amusing, the World of Terry Pratchet comes to mind.

 

Whatever a primordeal cloud is, its not conscious or silly... As far as ...

But it can develop into a solar system and life enters somewhere...

Why not on the other side of the beginning of the sun?

The needed elements were there, no gravity makes pancakes out of small globes

made of such and such molecules! Cells containing some such and such acids?

 

Theres a discussion going on whether life on mars seeded life on earth...

The development of that story starts in the bible 4000 years ago by God creating earth and all life in it.It progresses through the enormous amount of time Darwin needed to replace God with Evolution. There was a time when lord Thomson (or whatever the name was) calculated the time it took the hot beginning earth to cool down to a 100000 years or so... So it took scientists still more time before the amount of time needed for us to evolute from the unknown origin till here was settled on. All I say here is that science been consistently to conservative in appreciating time, so lets move the creation of life as far back in time as seem possible.

 

I rule out Big Bang for practical reasons... Let it begin in the PC!

(No i dont mean the computer )

So: Cells were formed before our sun was. Can we put the opponent to the hero there? What did the first cells feed on and what evolution was there?

 

Lets look to the time after parasitic/symbiotic cells began invading other cells.Perhaps while seeding planets. Lets suppose invaders didnt satisfy themselves only doing the work the mithochondrial cells now do, lets suppose that in the end our conscious mind arise originally descending from an invading cell, now believing itself in control, while being invaded and partly controled by another ? the hero is a normal human being, the villain is the unconscious mind seen as having too much power and using it in non moral ways.

 

Is all thats needed for a story now for the hero to find the tool that enables him to resist and put a limit to the damaging effects of his invader who cant be too evil since evolution kept the involved parties together?

 

The scenario is somewhat weak and I wonder if even a resurrected Van Vogt could make an action story out of it :(

 

But perhaps it is a possible model of how things could be?

Nah! Who except DrF believes in an unconscious anyway? Probably not even the unconscious mind itself, living quite comfortably, having no natural enemy of its own to worry about :D

Posted

Lets rewrite the beginning:

 

1 In the Primordeal Cloud destined to become our solar system,

life was already there!"

 

2 Most PCs grow life but unless suitable planets form, its chances to evolve into

complicated forms like ourselves are close to zero.

 

3 Perhaps you are a computer? Then you are probably not aware of a what "life" is, so I think you deserve an explanation and/or definition :)

This thread was started in the silly forum since i felt the need of a safe place to look at,and save, what i write irrespectivly of what the topic is...Can i change the topic? It was intended to be "The Secret Writings of sigurdV", but "Lair of the Wolves" would flatly Be best!

 

Then CraigD an admirable administrator entered # (ill chek number later (its 5)) which made me both happy ( gee its safe in here) and somewhat miffed since he might be interpreted as really thinking of my efforts as silly...

 

The move into the present environment proved me wrong:

 

By creating a PARADOX (or at least a contradiction) he proves he is bright insightful and above all... Damn Funny! (A fact his administrative duties might prevent him from showing off too often.)

 

Heres to you CraigD: :lol:

Hey Sig,

I have no idea what you are trying to communicate, if anything. I will assume that's my fault. But you do seem to have a lot on your mind. So how about zeroing in on something so that someone simple like me can respond. :mellow:

Dear Knothead:

 

At the moment ((((((((((((((( if indeed there is such a thing) At first sight d=n, and theres an empty space preceeding it))))))))))) (Heh! again an easy Translation: Clifford D Simak in "Time is the Simplest Thing.)

 

sV is either in Purgatory or in the pools at Delphi, my mirror on the wall seems not to be able to decide on it (C the chapter on reflections in the Theory of opTICS by, you probably Can Gauss who... ?)

 

I suspect you have the qualifications for wolfhood, go on asking silly questions like that and im sure hE or another wolf will eventually share strawberry jam with u!

 

On the third hand,ure Q makes somesence! ...

The other puterday i actUally heard him say in a sigh "Ceen as an intellect "cic(k)yfos"is my name".

Perhaps tHAT was a reaction to your coming question? :heks:

 

PS The portal to Purgatory can be found in Typography, access to the Oracle is as yet a closed matter... keep practising sCtxt and you might get teleported! :rose: Oh my, my hero! :rose: -CIG IS BACK ! He is in the nude and...(Just another cliffhanger)

 

Sig:Sorry i have no time? for you now? ... The Plot? seems to thicken into Zyrup? so i suggest u check out #3 ifnt u already didnt.(((y oh y must lines be sung?)))

 

(added as an afterthuOght lets hear whaT Z (i think of him as a publisher of somE kind)has to say:)
