I want my final project to be a data-driven small multiples work. I was really touched by Lukas’ work for the midsemester critique with the zigzagging lines reflecting texts between him and his girlfriend, and I had also seen Caroline Hermans’ project exploring attention dynamics with linked scarves<\/a>, so I was considering a project reflecting in some way the history of my messages with my partner…! As for the output, I’m still sort of waffling between some ideas\u2014generative poems constructed in a “mad-libs” manner; generative living rooms with different elements like couches, tables, lamps, etc.; generative letters between fictional figures with text with varying levels of readability (delving into asemic writing territory) corresponding to varying levels of understanding between said fictional figures.<\/p>\n

Golan recommended Allison Parrish’s Eyeo 2015 talk<\/a>, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I liked the analogy she drew between unmanned travel and exploration of strange language spaces. In the same way a weather balloon can go higher and explore longer without the weight of a human, generative language can go into novel spaces without the weight of our intrinsic biases or bents towards meaning. I also liked the piece at the bottom of this lecture<\/a>, Sissy Marley’s “My House Wallpaper” (2020) because I’ve always been obsessed with the concept of building a home and understanding the components (people, objects, light) that define a home. I thought generation might be an interesting way to explore home construction without being weighed down by past connotations of home\/traumas surrounding home.<\/p>\n

Lukas also recommended “Dear Data”<\/a> (putting this here for my future reference).<\/p>\n
