Conversations with a Computer, 2008

“Contained within the operating system of Mac Computers is a rudimentary electronic psychotherapist program. Meant to simulate a Rogerian therapist, it engages the participant in a cyclical conversation by taking his or her statements and roughly reconfiguring them into questions.

I met with this program three times a week for a month in order to discuss my fear that I was disappearing completely. These are three stills from our conversations.”

- Daniel Everett – Conversations with a Computer, 2008
