E2: Kafka Goes to the Castle; S15: And You'd Think That Was Dark Enough Already

<p>This might be kind of boring to read, but I thought it needed a description. I just asked AI to somehow convince you that this episode is a perfect weave of Van Gogh, Kafka, Rimbaud and Nietzsche.</p><p>We could throw in Ionesco too, as I&#39;m quite sure a Large Language Model would be able to figure out why. Was it because Ionesco thought one could argue anything from any piece of work?</p><p>Well, I wanted to see if the Large Language Model could outdo him, and I could win the Trifecta... if only it was four horses instead. Maybe the four horsemen of the apocalypse?</p><p>Anyway, here is what the LLM did. Again, it might be boring... and what I&#39;ve written here is probably sufficient now as the whole description of the episode:</p><p>Kafka supplies the Castle: bureaucracy arriving after the fact to explain what apparently must have happened.</p><p>Van Gogh supplies the distortion: nothing changes, exactly, except the sky starts moving because of what it feels like to look at it.</p><p>Rimbaud supplies the escape hatch: language stops behaving, the “I” becomes suspicious, and somebody climbs over the wall rather than use the gate.</p><p>Nietzsche shows up afterward with a hammer and asks who decided the gate was a gate, the rule was a rule, the shame was shame, or the self was a self.</p><p>Then Ionesco walks in and points out that this is all completely ridiculous.</p><p>Which proves he belongs too.</p><p>So now we have five horsemen.</p><p>At the centre of all of them is a kid who discovers that something feels good and then constructs an astonishing amount of architecture around that fact.</p><p>Eventually there is a Castle.</p><p>Apparently that’s the episode.</p>
