  1. Aarhus Urban Operating System (AaUOS)

    Aarhus Urban Operating System is situated as a parasitic ‘flipside’ of the ELO 2021 conference website, where you’ll find a chatroom populated by e-literary bots that are trained to be connoisseurs of certain aspects of the city of Aarhus. The bots of Aarhus Urban Operating System are based on equal parts handcrafted conversation trees and recurrent neural networks. Each bot is a character in a metropolitan drama, from the head of the tourist department to the local bog body, the Grauballe Man (who you’ll get to know by interacting with the work).

  3. Poems About Things

    Poems About Things is a project that generates poetry from everyday objects around us. It consists of a mobile website that constructs quirky sentences about the objects it sees through the users camera feed.

    As the user's camera focuses on an object, a built in machine learning model gives its best guess as to what object it is seeing. Based on this estimate a short query is sent to Google Suggest API, which in return sends back a list of sentences inspired by the detected object. The poem appears on the screen overlaying the image of the object. It consists of a handful of sentences expressing thoughts, questions or comments related to the immediate object as well as the bigger world outside it.

  5. Arf Magna

    “Arf Magna” sings the praises of the canine, not the divine, elaborating on the virtues of man’s best friend. The piece is based on the system of Ramón Llull’s Ars Magna, published in 1305 and including a paper wheel, or volvelle, to allow readers to produce different propositions about God by combining sixteen dignities. “Arf Magna” is also a simple, interactive, verbal machine, with Llull’s volvelle unrolled onto an implicit grid on the computer’s screen. As the user moves the mouse horizontally and vertically to produce propositions, colors shift and notes sound. The entire artwork is contained in a single page of HTML and is free/libre/open-source software, offered under a permissive license.

  6. Artificial Emotions

    Partiendo de un data-set compuesto por obras maestras de la pintura occidental, se utilizó el API Emotions (un desarrollo de Microsoft) para analizar los rostros que aparecen en dichas pinturas. Lo que puede verse aquí es el resultado del accionar de dicho algoritmo, puntuando, en cada rostro reconocido, las distintas categorías que según el API componen las emociones -enfado, desprecio, desagrado, miedo, felicidad, neutralidad, tristeza y sorpresa-.

  7. Poesie Elettroniche

    Cosa succede quando la poesia incontra il codice di programmazione per computer? È quello che succede nell'ebook di Fabrizio Venerandi "Poesie elettroniche". Sei diversi modi di interpretare l'electronic poetry in un originale ebook dove i versi cambiano nel tempo, reagiscono al tocco del lettore, si modificano sotto i suoi occhi, generano a loro volta altri versi, si muovono nella pagina avvicinandosi e separandosi. Per questo ebook in versi Fabrizio Venerandi ha deciso di utilizzare l'ultimo formato per la creazione di ebook arricchiti, l'ePub3. Ha scritto i versi e contemporaneamente ha programmato il codice per animarli e renderli instabili. "Tutte le quattro sezioni del testo - spiega l'autore nella sua introduzione - contengono cose che non avrei voluto rileggere. Che non avrei voluto fermare in una forma. Queste sono poesie che non vogliono essere finite, ma che credono che la cosa di cui parlano sia ancora una cosa in mutazione". Per questo il lettore si troverà di fronte a versi cancellati, mutanti, in movimento.

  8. Bot or Not

    Bot or Not, a 2019 Mozilla Creative Awardee, is an online game that engages people in thinking critically about artificial agents that pretend to be human. Potentially matched to either a bot or a person, players are forced to question not only the human-ness of their opponent, but also themselves as they engage in a two-way guessing game. Today, more and more sophisticated bots are proliferating online and off, and it's getting harder to tell who's human. While this technology can be useful, it can also be used dishonestly: either through scam bots on Tinder and Instagram, or corporate bots that steal your data. There is a ton to learn about bots - particularly how to identify them - which you can explore by visiting the work.
