These questions are then displayed on<br \/>\n21 different small LCD screens. All the questions are \u201cgrammatically correct,\u201d<br \/>\nbut almost always make little to no sense, (Ex. How badly does it metabolize in<br \/>\norder to continue setting funding? Where does he cradle repulsively?). \u00a0The questions are displayed at a rate of<br \/>\n33 per minute, \u201cthe threshold of legibility,\u201d meaning there is no time for one<br \/>\nto reflect before the next question is displayed. The program is capable of<br \/>\ngenerating 55 billion different questions, and if running continuously would<br \/>\ntake over 3,000 years.\u00a0 A nice<br \/>\nvariation of this piece is that viewers can interact with it by typing their<br \/>\nown questions to be integrated with the computer-generated ones. This allows<br \/>\nfor a unique type of interaction that blends the line between program and<br \/>\nhuman. All questions are displayed the same, so there is no way to distinguish<br \/>\nbetween the two.<\/p>\n<p>Information obtained from:<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"33 questions\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lozano-hemmer.com\/33_questions_per_minute.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.lozano-hemmer.com\/33_questions_per_minute.php<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":546,"featured_media":15412,"template":"","artist":[101],"streams":[2],"keywords":[],"decade":[5544],"media":[5549],"class_list":["post-715","artwork","type-artwork","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","artist-rafael-lozano-hemmer","streams-motion-duration-illumination","decade-2000s","media-others"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artwork\/715","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artwork"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artwork"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/546"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artwork\/715\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15411,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artwork\/715\/revisions\/15411"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15412"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=715"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=715"},{"taxonomy":"streams","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/streams?post=715"},{"taxonomy":"keywords","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/keywords?post=715"},{"taxonomy":"decade","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/decade?post=715"},{"taxonomy":"media","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artelectronicmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?post=715"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
