@alexhammy @lmorchard This: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Leaves The funny thing is, all I know about it is the few references that made it into MyHouse.wad, and it still made sense. @nex @alexhammy @lmorchard Had a thought: are there any audiobook versions of HoL that do it any justice? @WhiteCatTamer Huh, I've never heard of someone trying that. I feel like you'd have to really put something strange together and try some odd tricks like jumping around in audio, maybe some weird alt-reality game style decoding challenges? @lmorchard @WhiteCatTamer @nex @alexhammy It would be really challenging. For example, I have no idea how you would make the word “house” sound blue. @nex @alexhammy Yeah, very cool weird book with many narrative layers - like telling the story of telling the story of what happened to a character. Also lots of neat tricks in the layout of the text in the book, sometimes turning sideways and in spirals. Lots of footnotes to other things in the book, along with fake & real pointers to articles beyond the book. |
@lmorchard what's a House of Leaves?
