Assignment 2 Study 1 ARTIST STATEMENT (Interactive Media)

Word Generator:

I had a tough time building my word generator together. The concept was a lot more advanced in the language of Max 7. Since I failed to have the program working, I shall attempt to explain my thought process on how it would work. Influenced by interactive artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, I conceptualised the idea of generating a set of random words from each category of word (nouns, pronoun, verbs etc). This idea was inspired by Rafael because his art works have used logistics to understand human nature. The words will be selected from a database embedded in the patch which comes from all the words in the dictionary which are categorised in their respective grammatical classifications by a click a button. Once the user clicks the button, a series of words for each category are randomly generated. Here the user interacts with the art and is free to construct the desired sentence using the words provided by the generator. The written sentence will in a space where other users will write their own sentences as well. From the types of sentences constructed by the users, we can interpret the information in a variety of ways. We can grab a slight sense of mood the user was to the level of their literacy ability.
