Algorithms for Human Graphical Processors (HGP)

I: Mellow Chaos

II:

III: 5 Times 5 Lines

five different colored pens, if possible also with different tips one A5 piece of sandwich paper or comparable paper (it has to be translucent) before you start, make sure that all your selected pens work on the chosen paper

Take your favorite animal book, in case you’re not in this lucky situation, go to the library to get an animal book of your choice.
Make sure it has lots of pictures! You can also work in the library and you can also use more than one favorite animal book.
Open the animal book in a random way and select one of the animals you see now to put the translucent paper on it.
Now try to capture the animal in your very personal way with five lines, not more not less, do NOT connect those five lines and make sure it does not look like they are almost connected (I trust you)
Repeat step 2 and 3 four more times, and ALWAYS use the same translucent paper with another colored pen. It is totally fine and fun when lines overlap!
Congratulations! You draw 5 times 5 lines and saw beautiful animals.

IV: The Poet

V: Subliminal Messages

Newspaper, economics focused or at least one with lots of numbers and text, one black felt pen, one red felt pen, one blue felt pen

Open a page in the chosen newspaper, make sure there are a lot of numbers in the text. Best would be a page or double page full of letters and numbers.
Cut out a piece of this text in size of 20x15 cm and make sure you have a lot of numbers and letters in this piece as well.
Put squares around every number with your black felt pen.
The numbers now symbolise the alphabet (A=1, B=2, C=3, ..., Z=26).
Now translate the numbers into letters and put the translated letter over the according number. Since starting at “J” the numbers get binary, you can often choose how to translate the numbers.
Try to find via this method something like a message within the text. Maybe it won’t be complete, but this does not matter since:
You will get some extra letters by observing your environment: When you are outside of your home, look for numbers. Collect as much cyphers as your first name consists of letters
Use the same technique as before to translate those cyphers and put them at places of the already existing message to complete it more, use your red felt pen.
Put this subliminal message of the newspaper back in the envelope you received this algorithm in and send it to your own address!
When you receive your letter, check for all numbers of the postmark and use them as well to complete your message with the now familiar technique of translating cyphers into letters. This time use the blue felt pen
Bring the result in the envelope back to class
If you would like to get more into subliminal messages in an entertaining way (with great music), go watch “Under the Silver Lake” at Lichthaus Weimar!
