Acting credits as 'Madame Psychosis' — the YTMP cluster; Low-Temperature Civics her first JOI appearance

pivotal · YTMP (2003)

• When: YTMP (2003); two entries carry archival "(?)" on the year, and The Night Wears a Sombrero is "listed by some archivists as completed the preceding year, Y.W." — as printed. The first-appearance datum itself is UNDATED in scene 139; NOTE as printed tension — Hal's meditation ties L-TC's germ to JOI's "dark B.S. '80s" patent-windfall/Wild Turkey period (scene 138, p. 706), decades before Joelle could have acted in anything
• What: Credited (as 'Madame Psychosis') in JOI's YTMP output: Low-Temperature Civics (Death, whose "ecstatic encounter" leaves the CEO father irreversibly catatonic); (The) Desire to Desire (a beautiful cadaver); Safe Boating Is No Accident (YTMP(?); a fiancée whose face is grotesquely mangled by an outboard propeller); The Night Wears a Sombrero (YTMP(?); a mysterious veiled nun who ritually blinds Oedipally aggrieved gunslingers). The narrator of scene 139 states Joelle's first appearance in a James O. Incandenza project occurred in this very Low-Temperature Civics — the executive-suite "inversion" cartridge Hal is looking for that same week (cf. scenes 138, 140).
