Mill+ Director Thomas Webb created this piece of digital artwork by hacking apart the Twitter API to find tweets from people worldwide suffering from depression. Using sentiment analysis, he was able to strip away unwanted data, profile pictures and @ handles to reveal the immediate conscious thoughts of strangers around the world. With around 3 tweets per second worldwide, the mirror displayed the most recent message every 10 seconds.
Thomas was selected to showcase this piece at Saatchi & Saatchi's 'New Creators Showcase 2019' and was also shortlisted for Ashurt's Emerging Artist of the Year 2019'.
