            <text>Don't Leave Me, Baby is a digital poem created out of live social media data. Messages of emotional anguish and insecurity are sourced in real time from Twitter and matched with expressions of consolation and reassurance. Tears are wiped away as soon as they are shed; hearts are mended as soon as they are broken. In the data stream, our emotional evolution takes a great leap forward;  the human psyche becomes a flawlessly resilient, self-correcting system. The work is part of a wider exploration of the emergent personality of the Internet and the possibilities of data-driven text by hybrid media artist Andrew Burrell and writer Chris Rodley.</text>
