I Forget Just This Good Said Thing

These 900 original aphorisms by Colin Dodds each contain a small world, or at least a backdoor to slip out of the one you're in. For best results, flip around the book and seize on a line, think about it or dismiss it, then start flipping and try again.

It is a textual accompaniment to Forget This Good Thing, an attempt - by turns playful and deadly serious - to harness a fundamental force of the universe to turn the world's 6.6 billion smartphones into real-time oracles.

This edition includes original essays about how Forget This Good Thing works, why it works, case studies on instances where it has worked, and why you - yes you - may so desperately need it.'

It is an oracle, a voice from the unknown to the unknown. It's the nemesis of Google, because it can tell you what you don't necessarily want to hear. It interrupts. It interferes with the imprisoning tendencies of all minds global and personal. We know you need it because we need it too.

A previous book in the series was named a finalist for the 2022 Big Other Book Award in for nonfiction!
