Blink Eight Times

As already mentioned, I, Anna Kpok, am a regular interdimensional traveller. There are countless dimensions and new ones are coming into existence all the time—they break away whenever the bigger picture shifts direction. There are various theories about this, supported by arguments based on chemistry, physics, and philosophy—they’re very interesting.

But to be honest: I don’t really understand the process myself. My approach to it is practical: interdimensional travel is great because it allows you to visit many different worlds and along the way detect a number of very different realities, where people’s lives tend to differ considerably from what you know.

I, for one, am very curious about what we’re going to come across on this journey.

Look up at the information board. How long do we have to wait for the tram?

  • If we have less than three minutes to wait, it’s time to get ready for your journey: go ahead and take another look around. Think about what that might mean—an interdimensional journey. Consider what song would be playing, if this were a film. The moment before the hero begins their big journey—maybe “Don’t Stop Me Now”, by Queen? That’s what popped into my head, anyway. Please don’t get so caught up in searching for the right soundtrack that you miss the tram. When the 107 towards Bredeney Essen/Hauptbahnhof Essen arrives, we’ll get on board.

  • If we have longer than three minutes to wait, flip to page 10, where you’ll find more information about the technique for interdimensional travel.

If the tram arrives early get on it. When you’ve boarded the tram and found a good spot to continue reading, please turn to page 72.
