AUTOMATED REASON Nº1
Student Work / May 2013
Small publication regarding the nature and impact of computer algorithms and automation on modern society. A selection of articles, blog and tumblr posts from various sources where compiled and illustrated.
Topics ranging from algorithmic journalism, data mining, surveillance and even forms of algorithmic poetry were regarded.
A "text jamming" script was created to alter selected areas of copy. These lines of code assign random or sequential values to typographic properties such as baseline shift, character spacing or even font size bridging subject and printed matter.
