It explores themes of freedom, exploration, and the American landscape, inviting readers to experience the road in a new way. The fusion of classic literature with contemporary mapping services offers a unique perspective on travel and connection, making it relevant for both fans of Kerouac and modern explorers alike.

An algorithm combs through the universe of knowledge known as Wikipedia, beloved by plagiarizers of all ages, and saves its entries. A text is generated in which a narrator denies knowing anything about any of these entires.

Every day, people on Wikipedia nominate articles for deletion and discuss whether they should remain in the encyclopedia or not. It is done on a sub page called Articles for deletion. A frequent reason for exclusion of an entry is non-notability. After I had a look at those discussions, the article about my own person, Gregor Weichbrodt, ironically became nominated for deletion from the German Wikipedia, too. The anonymous person that put me on the list wrote Completely misses notability criteria for authors. Unsatisfying notability criteria for artists too. I wrote a Python script to download the contents of every articles for deletion-page from the past ten years and filter the results by artistic occupation. I saw that I was not alone in my fate and that there were many more non-notable artists in this world who also failed to meet the notability criteria. This book is dedicated to these artists.
