Main focus on feedback loops, flux, flow and and text as a regenerative organism.

OBSERVATION: Information inside a boundless space. TOOLS: ASCII (AALIB), NLTK & PDFTK Stamp / Background GOAL: Ascii texture made from texts, layering and feedback loops,

"Living text that is boundless & loops"

For my individual contribution, I was taken by the idea of feedback loops, flux, flow and text as a regenerative organism. Through Prototyping sessions, I felt that python tools such as ASCII & specifically NLTK could be used to reinforce the ideas of the flow from text to image, from output to input. My resulting pages aimed to show the looping of texts within the essay and how these can be looked at in a liquid way, settling on the ASCII representation of text flowing into itself replicating the movements of a waterfall. My end result highlights the revisiting of information but applying new methods and experiencing new forms, an idea explored in the original Liquid text.
