Plus Ultra

Plus Ultra, Or Excerpts From The Living Digest Of [email protected], A TEXT MESSAGING MANUSCRIPT FROM THE EVENTUALITY. As a design researcher deciphers strange messages received on his cellphone he soon understands the messages to be from some future version of himself. The images of tomorrow he decodes suggest a world dominated by a semi-sentient Google.com and its ever increasing desire to simulate reality. The book includes: excerpts from the text messages, several essays on how mobile technology affects language and social interaction, a speculative glossary of terms used in the narrator's world, as well as a bibliography to support the researcher's assertions about the text messages. Written, designed and researched by Ray Ogar.
