AVATARA
This is bound for the actual AVATARA page...
- Original design borrowed from the "textile block tiling" of Ennis House by Frank Lloyd Wright.
- Main graphics generated by Guido while discussing the AVATARA entity. The entity is twofold :
- AVATARA is the alias of a character suggested for an epilogue to Oni
- AVATARA is the name of a VIP network that individual used to have access to
- Text and katakana added by me.
- AVATARA may have been the CEO of BGI until the Cataclysm, and thus can be considered as a forerunner of META (hence the ME and TA katakana above)
- From Wikipedia
- The Sanskrit word avat�?ra- literally means "descent" and usually implies a deliberate descent into lower realms of existence for special purposes.
- Sur le fil du rasoir
- means "on the razor's edge" in French. Taken at brainstorm-time from HERE : "The search for knowledge is never easy. As the Upanishads say, it is like walking on the razor's edge." Also echoes Blade Runner a bit.
