Created in 2021, this sculptural sound installation invites visitors to engage with the (then not so widespread) theme of Artificial Intelligence by interacting with a modified typewriter able to generate text output and type it autonomously using OpenAI APIs.

Visitors communicate with the artwork by answering a series of questions which inform the style and content of the correspondence they are going to co-create, ultimately commissioning a work of art(ificial intelligence).
