The Walk. Art and poetry.
All beauty dwells within every aesthetic experience; all aesthetic experience breathes through poetry, and all poetry springs from those builders who set out to capture that beauty. Poetry simply means making. To create is to open up a space where something fresh can come into being. Sound and image matter quite a bit here, so you'd be well off putting some headphones on. Tap the screen or click the buttons you come across to take in the sound and the breath of the Walk. The poems at the threshold are the raw material with which these spaces are built—liminal spaces between the artist and AI, a proper fold between two worlds. Using the browser's own everyday tools to make art out of them—well, that is the whole challenge. With a helping hand from AI, I have tapped into the very soul of web browsers (.html, .css and .js) to turn text into image and sound. Not as mere decoration or illustration, mind you, but as an actual metamorphosis from one medium into another—letting scripts tame electrical pulses through the sheer wonder of the binary system, with nothing more than zeros and ones as numbers. Back in the eighteenth century, Gottfried Leibniz traced this very system back to the I Ching, to which this work pays homage.
