FAUNAFAUXFLORA
FAUNAFAUXFLORA is an allegory inspired by structures of data mining in social network systems. We join these systems freely, expose intimate details of our life, all the while, this information is being compiled to create a virtual image of who we are, and what we would desire based on our past virtual behaviour. FAUNAFAUXFLORA has us follow Fauna as she joins a social network system, displays intimate details to a sensor, which predicts what she would enjoy as her bedding based on this information and behaviour. after the sensor makes an incorrect prediction she realizes the bedding is mimicking her and destroys the sensor. However it is still watching her, it's just not making "suggestions" anymore.
