GitHub - Wallington/VoZ: Zosimos was a mystic in the 16th century who recorded his visions and alchemical insights in a series of manuscripts. They were not widely accepted because of their heretical nature, and most copies were destroyed. Lost to time, surviving copies were were brought to light by Bertold Slate, Professor at Hertford College, Oxford, whose focus was on 16th century mysticism, gnosticism, and hermetic alchemy. He read them, and as he read, he began to see connections to the works of Nostradamus and Dee. He became the foremost authority on this otherwise much neglected figure and worked to create awareness not only of the works of Zosimos but of the profound truths he found revealed therein. Initially, only his graduate students helped him in his work, but he soon began to attract the attention of other like minded scholars and modern mystics. Things changed when he shared the Visions with a friend who was a mathematician and Computer Science professor. Together they began to create programs that could express the complex formulae of the arcane texts in the language of computers. They then gathered select programmers and theologians to create an interface for this mystical learning. This game is that interface, allowing novices to be inducted into an eternal struggle for the very nature of existence.
