Objects of interest / e.g. objects that could be represented at an exhibition.

Questions to be answered
What is the network that sustains this object?
- How does it move from person to person, person to software, to platform, what things are attached to it (visual culture)
- Networks of attachments
How does it evolve through time?
Evolution of the interface for these objects. Early chatgpt offered two parameters through the API: prompt and temperature. Today extremely complex object with all kinds of components and parameters. Visually what is the difference? Richness of the interface in decentralization (the more options, the better...)
