Text mining algorithms are the hidden actors on the internet, that monitor social media platforms, are used in national security programs, and are starting to review essays written by students in school. Their results seem to be read directly from the data, but this research project shows that text mining results are not read nor mined, they are constructed. The lack of fixed standards, the effect of the metaphor of raw data, and the way in which the term mining disregards the human aspect in the creation of results, question if results are actually read from their source. With these three research topics, this project reveals the writerly nature of this technology.
