"my country is a Living Room" is a project by artist Carlo Zanni who made extensive and radical use of Google Scribe to write a poem on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of Italian unification.
The poem was written in English using Google Scribe, an online editor that auto-completes suggestions as you type. Only the words and letters in bold at the beginning of each sentence have been consciously written.
In the first sentence ÒI wok", was written on purpose while the rest was suggested by the online software and accepted pressing the spacebar.
And so on, phrase by phrase, this visionary and dystopic poem wrote itself unveiling -in a constant stream of consciousness feeling- some inconvenient truths framing a sleeping, resigned, happy nation.
The poem has been translated by Google Translate to fifty seven languages with no editing.
