June 2nd

Early Morning

Multiple players try to listen to the /1217 audio at 12:00am, but are unable to. Player RED, who claimed to have heard it yesterday at 12:00am, now says they may have dreamed of hearing the audio. At this point, there is no conclusive evidence that we may be able to hear the audio on /1217 at 12:00am or otherwise.

Tati answers an ask inquiring her opinion on cake pops. She says that her favorite is the pink kind, which she assumes is strawberry flavor. 

Tati answers an ask that wants to know if she is an angel. Tati responds “h e l l o ‼️ i used to think i was. 🤍 it m a d e sense. though i'm not sure if this place is h e a v e n anymore. but it's nice to meet y o u 🤍”. In the message, “h e a v e n” was linked to /here.

Tati replies to Sylvan, who sent her a screenshot of a message Mal asked to be passed along.

Mal’s message summary. 

Summary of Tati’s response is below the readmore

Night

Player m discovers the password for the /inspiration page.

Page + Message Summaries

Tati’s response summary: Tati says she found the message a nice surprise and she’s glad that Mal is thinking of her, but she disagrees with Mal that she closes herself off. Tati says that she also wishes she could talk to Mal, but that she wouldn’t know what to say. Then, player Mateo asks Tati if she would like us to send anything to Mal. Tati thanks him and says that she will ask Henry and Will if they have any ideas on how to “get us all t o g e t h e r”. The only messages she leaves for Mal is to hang in there too.

Inspiration page summary:

The page reveals two pictures of surrealistic art. 

The first image is an example of the drawing game Exquisite Corpse, but is currently unidentified. 

The image links to /1217 and its file name is “piece by piece.png”

The second image is identified by player Sylvan as Nude by Yves Tanguy, Joan Miró, Max Morise, and Man Ray (Emmanuel Radnitzky) using the drawing game Exquisite Corpse.

The file name is “stitch by stitch.png”.

Behind the second image is an excerpt from page 14 of the poem Un coup de dés jamais n'abolira le hasard (A Throw of the Dice will Never Abolish Chance) by Stéphane Mallarmé. It reads “legs en la disparation / à quelqu’un / ambigu / Pultérieur démon immémorial”. Player Lyra translated this to “given upon the disappearance of someone ambiguous the immemorial ulterior demon”.

The excerpt links to the  /w-h-a-t-h-a-p-p-e-n-e-d page, which was originally found in a list of every page on en-abime in the code of a locked page. Players are currently working on finding the password for this page, but have been unsuccessful as of now.

Un coup de dés jamais n'abolira le hasard (A throw of the dice will never abolish chance)

Marcel Broodthaers, 1969

Softcover book with mechanographic printing, 32.5 × 25 cm

Broodthaers considered Stéphane Mallarmé a champion of modern art and a liberator of language, and despite the dark, harsh blocking noticeable in this piece, Un Coup de dés jamais n’abolira le hasard is undoubtedly a homage to the French poet and his initial literary work of the same name. Having transitioned from writing poetry to creating visual art in the 1960s, Broodthaers symbolizes his own artistic undertaking by physically transforming Mallarmé’s poem into a work that relies solely on its physical structure, rather than the actual words itself. He used only black bars to cover the lines, keeping them the same length and size as they appeared in Mallarmé’s poem in order to highlight how the work played with typeface and open space on the page. Due to the translucence of the pages themselves, it is possible to view other pages behind the primary spread on display, providing viewers with unique visuals of how space is used from one section to the next. On the title page, Broodthaers simply replaced the word Poème with Image, once again reflecting his own decision to move into visual art, all while still holding true to the work and methods of a man who equally inspired him. Although he is overlapping the initial poem with his own artistic process, Broodthaers “destroys” the precedent of Un Coup de dés jamais n’abolira le hasard while still solidifying its format as the foundational element of his piece.

Un coup de dés jamais n'abolira le hasard

"Ne trouvez-vous pas que c'est un acte de démence ?" demande ingénument Stéphane Mallarmé à Paul Valéry lorsqu'il lui soumet les épreuves corrigées d'Un coup de dés jamais n'abolira le hasard.

Un coup de dés jamais n'abolira le hasard (A Throw of the Dice will Never Abolish Chance) par Stéphane Mallarmé 

Maquette autographe. Selon Henri Mondor, Mallarmé "a écrit lui-même en très hautes lettres, lorsqu'il tenait à ses grandes capitales romaines ou à de grandes italiques, et une petite écriture, lorsqu'il ne voulait, de l'imprimeur, que des petites capitales ou des italiques de format habituel".
