I am told therefor I am
measurably what I like
what to expect
how to move
where to go first
what to do next
I am liked therefor I am
measurably of status
valued to be gazed
Timed to be visited
thumb-molested
and index-probed
I am ontologised
and machined
to be the measurably real
my captivating information
not for knowing
not for thinking
by the digitized flâneur
for having wielded The Real
The Measured Prescribed Best
before I was; reinterpretable
I am voiced-over
archived, retrievably non-forgettable
now I am datacyborg; formatted.

Pervertedly note-taken from Éric Sadin’s de-, pre-, post-scribing talk as collected and archived under the title La Era de la Digitalizión | Charlas del Futuro 2020, as suggested, via LinkedIn, by Prof. Dr. Dagmar Monett.

The poem was consequentially machined and automutulated (a present order of automation). With this I was informed how it could be written and visualized, respectively via https://www.craiyon.com/ and https://quillbot.com/ .
The output by craiyon, based on the input of the above poem, is uniquely disturbing. Yes, it is technically justified that faces are especially difficult to render, and yet…
tech initiatives are going from the aesthetic perversion (as in the visual renderings) deeper and deeper into our surrendered and delegated (not) being and (not) knowing.

Quillbot’s prescription (notice its restructuring from 3 to 2 lines per stanza):
“Therefore , I am told, measurably what I prefer and what to anticipate.
What to do
what to do next and where to go first
I am seen as having a status that is worth looking at since I am loved.
scheduled for a visit to be index- and thumb-probed
I have been ontologized and created to be the quantifiably real.
the fascinating details I have
not for thinking, nor for knowing.
for having used The Real The Measured Prescribed Best by the digitized flâneur
I have voice recordings that are stored, retrievable, and reinterpretable.
I have been formatted; I am a datacyborg.”
