“This web site is dedicated to giving information (what little there is) on the weirdest book in the world, the CODEX SERAPHINIANUS. The Codex is a collection of original artwork by Italian artist Luigi Serafini, presented as a travalogue or scientific study of an alien world. Unlike such alien worlds as Darwin IV in Barlowe’s Expedition, which one might find in a science fiction novel, the world in the Codex is obviously some kind of perverse reflection of our own. All of the Codex is presented entirely in an obscure alien writing. This writing, in combination with the bizarre pictures, is what finally puts the Codex in its own league for weirdness.”

“This is an example of MSIE’s ‘Design Mode.’ To work properly you must be using Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0+ for Windows. This sample app was reverse-engineered from a script I found on a site a long time ago. I wish I could cite a source, but I can’t. If anyone knows the original author, please let me know and I’ll be happy to give him/her credit. You should see an editable document… You can use all the familiar keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl-B to bold, Ctrl-I to italicize, etc). You can also drag and drop images.”
