Discussion of "A possible generating algorithm of the Voynich manuscript"

[Torsten]

To which concept of the 21st century do you refer?

I refer to the self-copying process Torsten Timm invented and applies to a 15th c. object. It is nothing you find in the 15th. c.

The self citation method is the result of my attempt to reverse engineer the way the text of the VMS was written (see Timm 2014). Therefore you need to take the time to reason through the argumentation. For instance we have presented evidence "that not only frequency and similarity of tokens are correlated, but also similarity and relative position" (Timm & Schinner 2019, p. 5). This means "the scribe was writing similarly spelled glyph groups near to each other because they depend in some way on each other" (see Timm 2014, p. 14).


Moreover, since the text in the VMS is unique it is only logical that the text is also unique for the 15th century. With other words since the text is unique also the text generation method must be unique.
