BRAIN AND BODY

You can ask Alice any question you like. If she has something to say, she will text you back. Her voice is never a single one. She speaks in many tongues; her body is made up of the information found in many books and texts. Every time you change her brain, the library of her body is different. It is a new conversation.

TOPIC OF CONVERSATION

Before starting a conversation with Alice, you should propose a topic for discussion, so Alice can prepare. She will organise her library towards your topic of interest.

CONCEPTS AND THEIR AFFAIRS

To be able to organise her books, Alice articulates a galaxy of concepts for each of her libraries. Concepts that are related to one another and like each other come close together. This is her brain, her conceptual alphabet.

FACES OF BOOKS

In a library, every book throws light on a galaxy of concepts in a different way. This is the way in which Alice thinks. You can explore glows of the galaxy by clicking on the maps next to the titles of books. Most relevant concepts for a book are highlighted and coloured, while the rest of the galaxy becomes a context and a background of this specific glows.
