As in the monkeys who bang away and end up typing repeated patterns and, thus, never typing out Shakespeare’s works, or those theoretical monkeys who do type truly stochastic strings and, thus, inevitably type out everything ever written, or that will be written, in the typewriter’s alphabet?
Or, perhaps, those logicians, symbolists, semiotics scholars, linguists and decoders who can take the variations in the repetitive monkey patterns and set up a novel coding system that, when retranslated, will manifest the sonnets, the odes, and all the great works of literature?
Too ADD to research this further than post read.
Would rather prattle my own worthless 2 cents.
This blog rocks, btw! :) Though on the other side of the country, its vibrancy can be felt, its aesthetic, delighted in.
This blog definitely relies heavily on aesthetics, which is in NO WAY a bad thing: color palette, layout, borders…all given careful thought by a designer/craftsman/artist., to fine ends.
