Poetry Machine randomly mixes two poems by William Blake: “Little Girl Lost” and “Little Boy Lost”. The poems are read aloud by the machine. Each time the reading is started, it may be different due to an algorithm that determines the use of a particular verse from the database. The artificial voices are synthesized by computer software. The human body influences and interacts with the machine. Depending on the listener’s distance from the object, the voices change: their volume shifts, phrases mix, and the sound becomes distorted. The work plays with the sensitivity of the machine, the fragility of digital memory, and the interaction between the human body and the artificial object.
