Inhaltliche Beschreibung
In a mnemonic technique of a previous pre-Post-It era, Cicero imagined inscribing the themes of a speech on a suite of rooms in a villa, and then reciting that speech by mentally walking from space to space. This equivalence between language and space connects a personal phenomenology with spatial configurations. For example, the bedroom is both an architectural program and acts as a memory space of comfort, dreams and sexual intimacy.
You are confronted with a blinking cursor. As you type the room responds, engaging you in conversation, building a home around you. This dwelling is built of spatial image/text fragments, forming an equivalence between the space you inhabit and the mental space of your conversation. Over time the dwelling acquires a history, being a palimpsest of conversations with those that engaged with it. The scratches in the space are made up of images and texts derived from the dwellers' inputs, web searches and translations, organized into clusters of spaces/ideas.
