"Carpet/?s" is an internet based project that allows you to
purchase a
personalised carpet made out of ascii (American Standart Code
for
Information Interchange). It runs on a php application where
internet
resources are used as yarn to make ascii cloths.
The user only has to do one click and a machine does the rest.
The
program generates textual output, and the ascii is always unique.
It is
based on the time when the surfer goes to a web site. The time in
a form
of hh:mm:ss is then used as a keyword for the results taken from
a
search engine. The program downloads the contents of a second
given
result, rejects html tags and white spaces and puts all textual
content
into a carpet-like form. The produced carpet-like image can be
printed
out or weaved in a factory and then shipped to the addressee.
ascii here stands for artistic standart code for
information
interchange. The piece has been launched on 3.1.2006 in oder to
support
artist earning money with Google AdSense program. Surfers supposed
to
click ads placed by Google instead of navigating through ASCII
images.
Though images play also a big role as it is the biggest
collection of
ascii images ever seen. They are placed on the fly from different
sites
located world wide. The collections of ASCII (American Standart
Code for
Information Interchange) appear slightly changed as they are on
original
locations, though images themselves are untouched.
A week later, after raising ~30$ Google AdSense account was
disabled.

Rapid flow of letters and numbers on a monitor wall
has nothing to do with chaos theory which can cause big
disruptions in our world. It has also nothing to do with
hackers world as one would like to say. Bookshelf
represents a network traffic translated into descriptive
form,
so the unseen side of "networking" would be understandable
or
at least readable. In a technical terms the flow of letters
and
numbers on the monitors would sound like 'tcpdump', a common
computer network debugging tool.

At present the rapidly expanding Semantic Web analyzes
digital
information in order to distinguish valuable content from digital
trash.
As well modern day search engines give more and more precise
results of
searched information yet how far will this artificial intelligence
go?
Will we eventually be able to leave it to machines to perform
automated
tasks such as creating images or writing texts?
For example digital information that is delivered via email
increases
daily if not hourly which in turn takes more and more time to
answer and
sort. The email answering machine provides a solution for this as
it
will write the answer emails using material available
online.
Mailia analyzes emails coming to ones mailbox and simply replies
to
them. Forget automated standard 'Out of Office' replies, Mailia is
as
intelligent as software like Eliza and as flexible as open
source
products. The email answering machine works in the following way:
it
grabs an incoming message, analyzes it, sends requests to the
Google
search engine, then picks up given results, sorts them, and
outputs the
information into an email form which is sent back to the sender.
If
answers are publicly saved, search engines will index the answers
again
and utilize these as output for other similar replies. Ironic as
this
statement may seem - 'Why not let the machines live their own
lives'.
