PRERETROSPECT #3

After some fairly extensive research I came to the conclusion that I would have to find a way to translate streams of consciousness into numerical data. To begin with I recorded myself talking for 20 minutes. Saying anything and everything which came into my head during this time. I then listened back to it, deconstructing it into different points. Every time I either changed the time I was talking about, or the mood/emotion of what I was saying changed, a new 'point' was created.

These were then put through a simple algorithm, to be turned into numerical code. This was based on the following;

PLACE WITHIN STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS ,  TIME SPOKEN ABOUT (+/- 20 YEARS), MOOD/EMOTION (+/- 20)
