Language "Encryption" by Adrian Herbez

September 18th, 2006 12:58 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Using online translation tools, "encrypt" some text (that you write or find) by translating it multiple times into different languages and then back into English.

For instance, "The drive to play San Francisco Zero" translated from English to German to French to Italian to English again becomes "The order of Saint game Francisco".

I started with a favorite Andrei Codrescue quote:

"It is the duty of the artist to sabotage the familiar"

...to which the translation process (English to Spanish to Italian to Greek to to German to Arabic to English) replied...

Indeed, The artist, close indeed

...seems to be in agreement to me

that's fantastic... both for the answer, and for reading Adrei Codrescu- nobody I know has ever heard of him, usually.
