Piero, James, An
Constant

* Festival only happening in Bern / not Zurich
* now that Anja is not coming, ask Sarah Garcin to join us in Suiss?
* nice to have series of bots (10-15?) of different complexities: replacement, regular expressions, neural network/ learning

* Piero:
    - integrating pieces of the text / novel & how to play with them
    description of how monster comes to live, not scientific at all (10-15 lines), made 3 sets of words that randomly replace words in description, makes it larger:
        * scientific
        * body parts
        * technical
        result makes no sense, but sounds technical
    - friend who's used to give workshops in Ch, advise to be practical & create bot that makes jokes
    - make it physical: have a bot that gives instructions, 'fetch the water', I'll wait 10 minutes'... -> can be nice for the rhythm of the publication, bot can ask to take pictures as well of the persons executing the tasks, or selfies
    
* James
- will throw out arm tissue bot < very explicit where monster's inspiration is, comes alive through these inspirations
tried out to use electricity to bring it to live, dead animals would not work :-)
decided to torture himself, but not appealing
- scene where he's living next to the family spying on them: which devices join the network, what kind of requests they make to outisde world, monitor & go for 'mainstream' options? -> type people to internet requests & mimic them
- neural network: easy -> this might not be powerful enough 
- look into the setup of local network
* An
- use local network to label new data to train new algorithms (f.ex. uncertainty with Wikipedia, gutenberg texts)
- Elize-bot
- replacement based on syntax (POS/chunks)
