Standing notice

Field agent CHARLIE LE FOL.

This page is maintained as a public mirror of verified transmissions.

Form 7-G is captured by three (3) separate transcribers, reviewed by three (3) separate auditors, then reconciled for final verification. This redundancy exists to ensure no frequency is lost, misheard, or — per protocol — altered in transit.

Protocol produces perfection. Field agents are reminded that decoded frequencies are to be transmitted as received. Deviation, however well-intentioned, constitutes a violation of Inter-Dimensional Broadcast Protocol and is logged accordingly.

TRANSMISSION 005 — "NO LONGER ASKING"

J. J. Grandville, plate from The Flowers Personified, 1849

            "Unhappy the man who never had his eyes fill with tears at the sight of a particular flower. Such a one can have been neither a child nor a youth. He can have had neither mother, sister, nor affianced bride. He never loved." -- from the original 1847 text. Don't know why I needed you to read this too.

Signal Conditions

Recording the usual locations left me feeling… wanting. Doned a hard hat and a nod of the head to slip into that new high rise I've been eyeing. On the ledge. Thirteen floors up. Captured the rays of the setting sun.

Looking out over the city my mind wandered onto the mundane. Is anything mundane? Only if we deem it so. The dying light made the concrete look like something more. Something divine.

Sitting with a lack of inspiration. Found half the transmission in old field recordings. Sorting through these cassettes was a mess. Note to self: be more organized.
