usingĀ  31 dichotomies from an essay called The Cyborg Manifesto by Donna Haraway

a google image query gets made each time a new word is displayed

the 20 or so results are shuffled and then displayed

a minimum of five computers need to be running and processing data (with countless in between to handle the traffic moving hundreds of miles) to complete this: your own, my webserver, google, and two webservers that host the dichomety-queried image.

i built it using php/javascript, see the code.
