Words Between Worlds uses reCAPTCHA verification process as a form of automatic poetry. Words used in the process called “human computation” are drawn from the Google Book Project are deceptively presented by the application as random words.
The installation projects a loop of archived words pairs from the reCAPTCHA application, splitting them with two surfaces to emphasize that one is always a random word and one a unresolved image from a printed book being scanned by Google. Sometimes love is caught expressing itself between eras, computers, worlds.
