Wikifly, the encyclopedia inside a fly’s brain
A fictional encyclopedia in which a fly answers questions, explains its origin story, and sees the world through compound eyes.
Field notes
Wikifly frames its encyclopedia as a transmission from Musca sapiens, a fly whose stated habitat is the World Wide Web and whose knowledge is “suspiciously vast.” The homepage exposes a question prompt with examples ranging from the color of the sky to the meaning of life, while describing the response system as a lore demo based on a small collection of fly thoughts. Three sample entries extend the premise into biology, science, and philosophy.
