Explore the Visionary Worlds of David Hoffman


The Matrix of Visionary Worlds originated in a record shop in the old colonial center of Salvador, Bahia, inspired in (the kabbalah-inspired fiction of) El Aleph, that of the cellar in Buenos Aires (was this a "true" example of an Aleph?), and that in the pillar in Cairo's Mosque of Amr, where the universe in its entirety throughout all time is perceivable as an infinite hum from deep within the stone...


You are connected to David Hoffman. This is neither mysticism nor fiction. Within a labyrinthine six or so degrees you are connected to every trumpet player in New Orleans, to every novelist in Delhi, to every DJ in Jakarta, to everybody below, and all of these to you.


The matrix is constructed upon the principle behind such unexpected proximity (the small-world phenomenon), with the profound difference that within the matrix, connections can be followed. Algorithms and artificial intelligence not required. Humanity yes. The Brazilian Aleph doesn't hum, it sings.
