"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.

Non-places seem to be the absolute thing situationists want to avoid. The idea of a place so bound by rules yet devoid of humanity and play is fascinating to me because they're so easy to identify and we spend a lot of time in these places. Given this, I want to take the mundane aspects of a waiting room, and use them as ingredients to create a performative use of space in an attempt to suggest what a situationist non-place could be.
In regards of gameplay, this translates to using found ambient sounds to create a disruptive soundtrack of a space. Taking recognisable clips, we can redefine the meaning and purpose of this atmosphere as a jumping-off point for creativity and play.
