Jer's Secret Files (For Your Eyes Only)

Welcome to my blog relating to art ideas that are in-progress and are not yet officially released to the public (unless they have found this web address). It is fine if people discover this blog but I will only give the address to those who do not mind viewing unfinished sketches and partially complete (officially unpromoted) projects.

Wittbott711





Well, here is a lively item from my vault that I would like to see revisited.

My good friend Karen Roff from Upstate New York for the last couple of years has been bot-sitting my conceptual art chatterbot modeled after the pioneering Conceptual Artist, Sol Lewitt...This chatty text-based bot - Wittbott711 has internalized all of Sol LeWitt's classic Sentences on Conceptual Art.

Originally it was shown in 2002 at the Liberarti Biennial festival in Liverpool:

Since then, Karen Roff has given Wittbott711 a new virtual home at:

I encourage you to chat with Wittbott711 as well Karen's own chatterbots:
Oring Rittoes O., CCC, and Gotottle von Gruttotle.

Cheerios,
Jer
