Normalised Utopia is a dystopian social science fiction novel set in the near future of an alternate reality of Primary_Sample_Space, previously referred to as London. The novel revolves around State Utopia where its citizen node castes are constrained due to a statistical totalitarian ideology.
Many parts of the novel is written similar, 'an introduction to econometrics', text book; its terminologies can be literary interpreted or in a pseudo-scientific philosophical inference.
Normalised Utopia is intended to be a metaphor for the evolution of thinking and perceptions of individuals and society as a whole as it progresses through the life cycle of a totalitarian regimes reign.
Bayes a civil servant at the Ministry of Inferences; at first accepts the fixed, given, known, mean of the Utopian state's sanctioned monthly statistical socioeconomic confidence interval quotas.
Yet after a chance encounter with the stochastic, intangible; error node vagrants, he becomes aware of a fixed, unknown mean (classical statistics); a freer inference and thinking. He becomes more stochastic and inevitably rebels against the Utopian state.
Normalised Utopia novel a unique novel as it is almost like being inside a metaphor of the transition from a fixed classical statistical being to a freer Bayesian statistical inference but also a novel about the natural progression of an individual fighting a totalitarian society. Normalised Utopia is meant to be a trilogy with a simple but powerful message. A hidden Christian message.
The novel is perhaps in the same genre as George Orwell's 'Nineteen eighty four' 1984, Aldous Huxley's 'Brave New World', Yevgeny Zamyatin 'We'?
I consider Normalised Utopia novel is similar to Yevgeny Zamyatin 'We', a novel which I only became aware of after I had mostly written Normalised Utopia.
However I changed Normalised Utopia's writing style from third person to first person after reading 'We'. I was inspired to call the citizens, nodes after being exposed to We's influence. Therefore some amendments where made to Normalised Utopia consciously or subconsciously due to We's influence.
I am not a professional writer nor an academic, merely an underemployed mouse in the overcrowded mouse utopia.
I claim to be the discoverer of the Fraser theorem yet I am sure many a great mind has realised this simple theorem throughout antiquity.
