Did any of you participate in the horse_ebooks arg? The way the twitters posts seems very similar to that. Makes me wonder if the same person who created that game is behind this one as well.

I have also found a website for a Nicolas Lyons, composer and violinist. Something we could look into.

I remember looking into that guy back when I first started this, but I don't think it's him.

I found this Nick Lyons who is from Victoria. https://pipl.com/search/?t=ZDYxMGFiNTc1OTQyYzIwMzAzYWVmOTY4N2M0ODE5YTYzZTA1NDlkOWM1YThkNjJm&in=8&q=nick+lyons&sloc=AU%7CNone%7CNone&l=Australia&avatar=avatar-2

He writes for a mag called Exclaim, which seems to be based around music http://exclaim.ca/

Here's his twitter https://twitter.com/nicklyons09?lang=en

Here's his blog https://milkandhoney2009.wordpress.com/

Although I don't see any technology or music experience or education on his pipl page, and that's the kind of resume I'd expect from Admin.

I messaged admin about ways we could further the cause and he responded with:

This probably sounds super ignorant, but can DMT be made into aerosol form? That's what first popped into my head when I heard nitrous oxide canisters, which are sometimes used as a propellant in cans. All I can think of is the Scarecrow from Batman. Laughing

Noticed that the Twitter has an empty list called The Social Radio. Seems to be for linking to an external app that plays music and reads out posts from linked people on the list.

I think most of the tweets are quotes from the book Finnegan Wake by James Joyce.

This website lets you search the book for quotes, not all the tweets are there but a good few.

Also it could be completely unrealated but searching google the most recent tweet I was able to find a soundcloud which has over 1000+ tracks of small quotes from the book. One of thems title contains a link to an adelaide.edu.au website which has the whole book posted. Thought it was interesting because Adelaide is where Ascensionism Records is based.

I poked a bit, found one line that looks to be from James Joyce's Ulysses. It is impossible to source singular words. Still, older posts seem to be pulled from random news articles or have no clear source despite unique text (Twitter post itself comes up as first result). Still feeling frustrated in all this ><;;

In other news, Nick Lyons performed at a bar on Feb. 12 according to his live dates page. http://www.songkick.com/artists/8332858-nick-lyons

This allowed me to find this page:
https://www.facebook.com/events/934222093292361/?active_tab=posts

Which led to to find the facebook page of Nick Lyons:
https://www.facebook.com/nick.lyons.5

His page doesn't seem to have anything interesting though.

Any updates from anybody? I have tried messaging admin and haven't received any replies. Its been nearly a month now since the strawpoll has been up too.

I've been recording the Twitter posts. FB hasn't updated. All of this has been so haphazard, especially lately feeling rather improvised, so I imagine that the admin has been either busy with other things in life or working on a more coherent continuation. I'm somewhat convinced that the Twitter is running off a bot or long scheduled in advance pre-posts outside of the few times he responds to @MaiVaChina.
