- William Blake, "Jerusalem"
-
When Nezha's posthuman future was unwoven, the nodes
of the computational substrate were destroyed in a
pattern which encoded Blake's "Jerusalem":
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark Satanic Mills?
Bring me my Bow of burning gold:
Bring me my Arrows of desire:
Bring me my Spear: O clouds unfold?
Bring me my Chariot of fire.
I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green & pleasant Land.
Don't gods with a sense of irony really tee you off?
-
Giorgio de Chirico
-
An Italian painter who founded the metaphysical school;
he is one of the predecessors of the surrealists. The
mythic world in this game is inspired by his paintings.
- The World, The Flesh and the Devil
-
J.D. Bernal's 1929 The World, the Flesh, and the
Devil: An Enquiry into the Future of the Three Enemies
of the Rational Soul is possibly the earliest
transhumanist work ever written. This is listed here
since it could serve as a potential point-of-contact
between Alec and Nezha, and because the whole text is
online.
