Much of Gretchen’s programming occurs through plain old human language.
The internet cannot parse desire. To parse is to divide into parts and identify the parts’ relations with each other. When humans read, “Gretchen is really hoping that someday her work achieves a new contemporary art auction record” it is understood that the relationship between Gretchen and the object of her desire to be one of separation. By contrast, the internet essentially understands only that Gretchen is “relevant” to the top auction records for contemporary art. It is as simple as defining what you want and writing it down.

Gretchen invites you to write down your own desires that will be stuffed into this Superman piñata and become a permanent part of this artwork.
