Twenty five million visitors are projected to pass through Expo during its sixth month run, and each will be invited to donate a word at the \u2018mouthpiece\u2019 of the pavilion, then enter within the heart of the instrument where they will be surrounded by donated words glimmering in illuminated arabic and English, underscored by a soundscape gathered from multicultural choirs across the UK.<\/p><div id=\"archi-2751257844\" class=\"archi-horizontal-in-content archi-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Horizontal responsive -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1313562808736279\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"4811561488\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p>As visitors emerge through the fa\u00e7ade of the pavilion they will pass through the twenty metre diameter composition of collective text: a new poem generated every minute.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1206\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1206\" style=\"width: 2400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1206\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography-768x570.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography-1024x760.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography-148x110.jpg 148w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography-337x250.jpg 337w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-ES-DEVLIN-1-photo-by-Alin-Constantin-Photography-733x544.jpg 733w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1206\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alin Constantin Photography, Image courtesy of Es Devlin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Devlin collaborated closely on the designs with structural engineers, Atelier One, environmental design consultants Atelier Ten, executive architects Veretec and creative agency Avantgarde. Guided by the engineers\u2019 expertise in sustainable construction, the team chose cross laminated timber as the pavilion\u2019s prime material. Sourced from sustainably managed European forests in Austria and Italy and championed by engineers as a sustainable alternative to concrete and steel, the cross laminated timber is crafted around LED tiles engineered in Belgium and manufactured in China, installed by local British and UAE teams, while the poetry generating algorithm has been developed by creative technologists in California. The pavilion has been conceived as an expression of cultural inclusivity and its execution is a feat of European and international collaboration.<\/p>\n<p>Devlin\u2019s exploration of machine generated poetry began with PoemPortraits at the Serpentine Gallery in 2016 in response to Hans Ulrich Obrist\u2019s invitation to consider the idea of a \u2018social sculpture\u2019. In 2017 she continued her explorations at the Victoria &amp; Albert Museum, turning their annual artist-conceived Christmas tree into a \u2018collective carol\u2019. In 2018, visitors fed words into the mouth of one of the lions in Trafalgar Square and watched the collective text projected up the length of Nelson\u2019s Column.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1209\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1209\" style=\"width: 2400px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1209\" src=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942-165x110.jpg 165w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.archidust.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/UK-PAVILION-EXPO-2020-ES-DEVLIN-4-28092021_Expo-2020-UK-Pavilion_Alin-Constantin-Photography-4942-780x520.jpg 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1209\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alin Constantin Photography, Image courtesy of Es Devlin<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The text generated by <em>Poem Pavilion <\/em>uses a machine learning model called GPT-2, a large language model defined by 1.5 billion parameters.
