Tendencies towards density as eventual progression towards intensity broadly as outlined here are a topic of interest -- as in J. Smart, cities, horror... (After all, intensity = density * velocity.) Recently interested in application of this to gematria -- the GoN is appealing here in its introduction of negative values, leaving it well equipped to deal with larger and larger inputs, but sorting through that blitz quickly collapses into (perceived) randomness. Smaller numbers are perhaps more useful (as in AZ, AO, & QQ gematrias -- 0 through 9 (you know it makes senselessness) or less usefully 1 through 10), as while they scale, larger sentences are often still equivalent to single words (far more so than in AQ), and appealing in their relation to decimal numeracy...

(What's a "topic"?) Anyway, it's blizzard o'clock, which'll perhaps come closer to addressing it...

MICRO-NIGHTMARES = AQ-307 = RAPID-FIRE REALISM (| = AZ-82 = WILLIAM BURROUGHS).

A LITTLE UNPLEASANTNESS = AQ-448 = (| AO-70 (= BETWEEN REAL AND PRETEND) & AZ-70 (= HYPERSTITION)).

HORROR EPITOMIZES LITERARY QUALITY = AO-139 = TURNING NOTHING INTO SOMETHING = WHEN A FIRE IN A ROOM BECOMES A ROOM ON FIRE.

META-FICTION = AQ-214 = HORRORISM = ACCELERATION.

IN MATTERS OF THE WORD, THERE IS NO SHARPENING WITHOUT SHORTENING = GoN1-54 = PUREST ANCIENT MAGIC = INVISIBLE HAND... & =...

THE SHARPER THE BETTER = GoN1-54 (| AQ-392 = ECONOMIC RATIONALITY = IN THE EYE OF THE STORM).

ULTIMATE ABOMINATION = AQ-385 = FREE MARKET CAPITALISM.

NAMES = AQ-97 = EARTH (hence its singular inclusion) = DEVIL = ALTAR.

INVOCATION = AQ-212 = TIME SPIRAL = BEGINNING & END = CHAOS IS PEACE = ABOMINATION (| GoN2-12 =...).

SEMIOTIC MICRO-COMPRESSORS = GoN2-12 (| AQ-527 = INVOLVEMENTS WITH REALITY).

INFINITUDES OF SINGULARITY = AQ-522 = OUT OF NOTHING COMES NOTHING.

FREDRIC BROWN = AZ-72 | ( AQ-243 = ALREADY INSIDE = TURING TEST).

KNOCK = AQ-99 = QABBALA = YHVH = VOICE.

WHAT KNOCKS = AQ-215 = TIME TRAVEL.

INVITATION = AQ-223 = INTELLIGENCE = EXTINCTION.

ALIEN IMITATIVE INTRUSION = AQ-4(9)5 = TECHNOLOGICAL SINGULARITY.

MAN = AQ-55 = AIR = IDEA = ADAM. (Interestingly, in AQ, the pattern is somewhat preserved -- 22 + 10 + 23. Not a self-reflection, but as an additive -- the end builds on the beginning, with unity between...)

NUMBERS 32:23 = AQ-165 = DOMINION = CHAOSMOS.

"too much will inescapably have been presumed."

the most horrifying single sentence story of all.

LAST = DOOR = 88

Fascinating stuff as always. Strangely fitting for election night, which obfuscates the simple, almost numerically perfect horror of the current situation with talking heads and mass hysteria.
