• Complicated drop shadows to make text stand
out against the image background
• CSS image effects to grayscale, blur, opacity

18. –John Berger, Understanding a Photograph
“I have decided that seeing this is worth
recording. … Photography is the process of
rendering observation self-conscious.”
22. –Frances Yates, The Art of Memory
“There are two kinds of memory… one natural,
the other artificial. The natural memory is that
which is engrafted in our minds, born
simultaneously with thought. The artificial
memory is a memory strengthened or
confirmed by training.”
25. –Frances Yates, The Art of Memory
“The artificial memory is established from
places and images…. A locus is a place easily
grasped by the memory, such as a house, an
intercolumnar space, a corner, an arch, or the
like. Images are forms, marks or simulacra.. of
what we wish to remember. For instance if we
wish to recall the genus of a horse, or a lion, of
an eagle, we must place their images on
definite loci.”

All bone, no meat
Growing, not grown.
Desire, dreams,
Nothing to show.
Diving, but still dry.

59. COCO’s grammar*
• Includes words related to her degree of
uncertainty at the object recognition
• nouns mixed in that are NOT in her vocabulary,
from a word2vec lookup of related terms in the
Gigaword corpus served by API (part-of-speech
tagged)
• Language style reflecting naivety and youth

63. –John Berger
“A photograph, whilst recording what has been
seen, always and by its nature refers to what is
not seen. … the quantum of truth in an
'impersonal' photograph must still depend upon
the general categories already in the
spectator's mind.”
82. “The man bent over his guitar,
A shearsman of sorts. The day was green.
They said, “You have a blue guitar,
You do not play things as they are.”
The man replied, ‘Things as they are
Are changed upon the blue guitar.’”
88. –Wallace Stevens, Man With the Blue Guitar
“We shall forget by day, except
The moments when we choose to play
The imagined pine, the imagined jay.”

“an artificial memory gone out of control into
wild imaginative indulgence…”
90. –Yates, the Art of Memory
“an artificial memory gone out of control into
wild imaginative indulgence…”
“the dream archaeology of a humanist mingles with dream
memory systems to form the strange fantasia.”
