"The messy lives of humans and their consumption can be amassed into pools of raw data then analyzed to reveal base patterns. The machine imagines these patterns will be followed. The pattern is neat, predictable. The pattern is made to appear neat and predictable and you are then measured against it. You become neat and predictable. But are you?
Kevin Day and Nathan McNinch question the machine as a mediator, not only as a communication portal constraining the range of interaction, but as a means to grind organic humanness into tidy numbers and letters and lines and lists. In their work, the machine becomes a metaphor for the absurdity of an industry collecting and mining an ever-growing mountain of human data, a gargantuan make-work project."
