Imperfection is Beauty: AppleTalk by Jürg Lehni
AppleTalk, 2007 / 2002, Jürg Lehni
AppleTalk confronts two Apple computers with the imperfections of verbal communication. Using two microphones, text-to-speech and voice recognition software, the two machines continuously transform written sentences into spoken words and back into written form in an endless loop leaving room for error and automatic interpretation.
With its similarities to the children’s game known as Telefone Game or Chinese Whispers, it results in a constant permutation of text and a production of poetic errors and left overs.

Quote: Baudrillard in Cool Memories
“Keep yourself as an other
Keep perfection as a crime
Keep illusion for the end
Keep on line for the while”
