Now that I’ve learned to turn weather data feeds into poetry, I want to take it to another level. For my next AI poetry project, I want to use MARTA public transit data to create poems with audio and visuals, but I want to use different prompts and/or workflows.
At the moment I’m thinking of riffing off an idea from The Ghettobirds collection: imagining MARTA as a sentient being, with the data functioning as surrogates for senses. I’m also thinking I’d like to put myself – or others – directly into the creative loop. Thinking biometrics or likes.
