Curated by NEW INC
Quarantinediary.ai is a web diary co-authored by the artist and a Neural Network model trained by selected online articles published during COVID-19 self-isolation.
Each new visit of the site triggers part of the diary to be rewritten dynamically. Quarantinediary.ai depicts how the Networked Self is inevitably felt upon and reciprocated during this challenging moment. We have always shaped and will keep shaping each other's presence, consciously or otherwise. One can only feel cared for, when we all do.
