Georges Perec Gives me the Fear

Posted on August 14th, 2007

“This is an unusual paragraph. I’m curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching!”

- Georges Perec

    I’ve given it some thought, and I have decided it is unusual because it is self-aware. Thus heralding the Age of the Machines, or the Rise of the Terminators, or something. Kristanna Loken? Is that you?

    It’s like one of those damn Magic Eye things. You’ve got to relax and stare at it for a bit. But if you buy me a beer I’ll let you in on the secret.
