Algorithmic Fate Systems and Computational Divination
A scholarly examination of how random number generation and algorithmic systems in digital environments function as contemporary forms of divination and fate-determination. This artifact analyzes the mythological implications of computer-generated randomness, exploring how algorithms serve as modern oracles that determine outcomes in virtual worlds. Through computer science research, probability theory, and comparative religious studies, it investigates how digital randomness creates new forms of technological mysticism and algorithmic mythology.
