An organism that lives between physical and virtual space and keeps information flowing through the network by eating and excreting it. Its food is Twitter posts that refer to violent deaths and murders. Pet searches for them, chooses what to eat, and uses them to grow and reproduce; what it has digested decomposes and goes back into the network as waste, posted by its own account.
In the gallery, Pet appears as a network of light projected onto the surface of a worn wooden table, growing as it feeds.
