This project starts in the bosom of the artistic residence of Trasformatorio 2017<\/a>, to which I was honored to participate.<\/p>\n The main idea was to transform<\/em> the energies and the resources that we found abundant in Scaletta Zanclea<\/a> into something to give back.<\/p>\n For days I observed the people, the feelings, the landscapes, the thoughts: an explosion of beauty that was awaking in me lots of forgotten stimuli. Only in the last days, I’ve suddenly realized that the biggest transformation<\/em> had occurred inside me thanks to the new experiences I was put into: as a project I wanted to distillate my thoughts as the deepest expression of my inner processes.<\/p>\n I keep a diary in which I record my days and thoughts, that was my starting point.<\/p>\n The starting point was given by the things I wrote down in those days. I’ve applied to it algorithms of Natural Language Processing<\/a> to split the text, to bring back the words to their original lemma<\/em> (basic form) and to compute the frequencies of usage of every single word.<\/p>\n At this stage, I can deduce which are the most dominant concepts reported in my diary. Through algorithms of Sentiment Analysis<\/a>, I can assign a different color to the words that belong to the neutral, positive or negative semantic field. When it’s all set I print them onto the shape of the beautiful castle that has hosted us for 10 days.<\/p>\n https:\/\/github.com\/ferdas\/memory-distilled#memory-distilled—trasformatorio-2017-project<\/p>\n<\/a>The process<\/h2>\n
