#### Nobody told me rivers dream

Project by Superflux. Physical objects that sense the world around them and write poems about reflecting on that through small, local LLMs.

"The language model behind them is deliberately small. It is knowingly incomplete. It is trained not on the open web, but on open-source birdsong, nineteeth-century weather lore, folklore and ecological wisdom. Its output is designed to be poetic and non-extractive, a bridge language rather than an answer.
