The project delineates a feedback loop between the earliest and the latest machines considered computers, activated by a human medium as a necessary gear. The algorithm perpetually generates maps and delivers weaving instructions with text, and binary codes. They are translated onto the weavings by a human loom operator, who redraws the globe as an after-work diary. The role of humans as the dominators, and machines as the subordinates has been reshuffled and switched over, resulting in a collision of minds.
