To write a paragraph or two about SerenA, I set out for a stroll to get the grey matter moving. As I walk, the wind blows a raggedy old comic across my path. The pages lie open to reveal the following message: “It’s mrs keeble. I better get her to the Docs in Serendipity.”

It was a clue.

I thought I would continue with the same abandon, employing the cut up technique made famous by Burroughs and Gysin, to unveil further details about SerenA from the comic: The scalpel, the random shuffle, the remix should allow this dirty paper rag to speak of serendipity, semantic connections, mobile interfaces, and chance encounters. In the age old adage; if you slice into the present, the future leaks out.

And so…

On the far fringes of

a big galaxy

there’s one fellow might be able to help you

a search agent they say’ll track a man to hell itself

look out for the heroic autobots

small and swift the mini autobots act as spies and messengers

very well, but put her to practical use, too. you know how i disapprove of your more…bizarre experiments

meanwhile look

video id alerts

delightful interfaces

something here about coding

24-hour surveillance

we know where you are

to find you in the conference
we go in, we grab the doctor with the data
we get out fast, no problem

searching across disciplines

that’s right doctor we need to know about a project you were working on….

mmm….SerenA was beginning to make sense.
