Ever

Amanda E. Metzger

«Ever» is an installation and website which contains diary entries generated by a Large Language Model (LLM) trained on the personal diaries of the artist. The diary entries can be generated through the website ever.metzger.love by you and the public and are saved on the Ethereum blockchain. These diaries are then are used for fine-tuning the artist's actual diaries reaching back to 2010 and continue up to this day, allowing for a speculative continuation of her story. While the actual facts of what really happened to the artist stay hidden to the viewer, the artist is able to communicate her hopes and sorrows and questions she is concerned with through machine-generated language. The installation shows all the texts that have been minted so far.
