Seraph Asterix

Serafini’s Codex:

“The Codex Seraphinianus was written and illustrated by Italian graphic designer and architect, Luigi Serafini during the late 1970’s. The Codex is a lavishly produced book that purports to be an encyclopedia for an imaginary world in a parallel universe, with copious comments in an incomprehensible language. It is written in a florid script, entirely invented and completely illegible, and illustrated with watercolor paintings.”

Apparently a full version of this hallucinatory work may be unearthed at the above link.

In April, 2006, Jay Allen posted about his continuing woes and a solution regarding installation of DBD::mysql on Mac OS X.

Just over a year later, the same problems apply to the platform and software combination. That’s ridiculous! I was able to pursue Jay’s step-by-step solution and the install succeeded for me. It has, however, taken a month to track down the information.
