Babel Search Engine

0 of 5 Stars
A 3D virtual library application, whose contents are spatialized and manipulated by the search process. This project examines two library models: the Google search engine and Jorge Borges’ Library of Babel. The Google search engine provides the functionality of a virtual organizational system, whereas the Library of Babel gives purpose to the tool. Key functions are extracted from each model and recomposed to produce the Virtual Library. In the Library of Babel, the roles of the Purifier (who purges), the Inquistor (who searches), and the Blasphemous Sect (who combine and create) are integrated into the search engine function. The result is the Virtual Library: a distorted search engine and an interactive visualization system constructed in the Flash application. Supported by a finite body of content, it claims to describe all textual elements in the world. The system achieves this by “blasphemously” combining unretrieved/unpopular data (creating “canonical content) to produce results for queries foreign to the library; the reasoning: if it does not produce a match, it must be a document not previously accessed, hence the search engine suggests a new document, made from a mélange of unretrieved documents. Similarily, when queries return results, the search function blasphemously combines all matching data into a new document, and adds it to the library. A new record is made for the document, and its keyword tags are assembled from the combined documents. The canonical content creates a new lens from which to interpret the query. Documents that do not match any queries are periodically purged from the system.
