uncontext.
A data-driven, community art(ish) project.
Public websocket of constantly streaming,
random seeming (it's not, I promise) data.
Because, sometimes, data should
work to win your affections,
not the other way around.
What does it look like?
Enhance!
Why not use random()?
Or a Markov Chain?
Or a Gaussian process?
Or a Hopfield network?
Let's stay connected!
What's the source of the data?
Well, that's a secret.
The theme for Session 1
(the current one) is Literature.
But the details will be revealed
in the future.
What's happening now

Sorry, I always forget this part

Do you have it ready?
But that's just the start

What can you power with it?
Ladies, can we talk?
I am shooting for a 50/50 split
between gender identifying collaborators
so that there is a strong
diversity of work.
Please contribute
