*Priced in Canadian Dollars

ReRites is a limited edition boxset of 12 poetry books (generated by a computer then edited by poet David Jhave Johnston) + 1 book of essays (about A.I and poetry). Between May 2017-18, Jhave produced one book of poetry per month, utilizing neural networks trained on a contemporary poetry corpus to generate source texts which were then edited into the ReRites poems. The boxset is a conceptual proof-of-concept about the impact of augmented creativity and human-machine symbiosis.
