Thinking Machine 4 explores the invisible, elusive nature of thought. Play chess against a transparent intelligence, its evolving thought process visible on the board before you.
The Machine’s Thoughts, Opening
The machine has many choices, with few forced moves, and future lines of play cover the board.
The artwork is an artificial intelligence program, ready to play chess with the viewer. If the viewer confronts the program, the computer’s thought process is sketched on screen as it plays.
The Machine’s Thoughts, Mid-Game
The lines of play become more focused.
A map is created from the traces of literally thousands of possible futures as the program tries to decide its best move. Those traces become a key to the invisible lines of force in the game as well as a window into the spirit of a thinking machine.
The Machine’s Thoughts, Endgame
The machine foresees that white’s pawn will become a queen, and dominate the board as the black king flees.
