“By implementing specific algorithms, software enables many processes to be automated: not only does it allow artists to delegate a significant portion of work to a machine, it also allows them to give up on the element of artistic “intentionality”, which is substituted with the random factor much sought after by the avant-garde movements. Instead of emulating a creative process, UBERMORGEN.COM’s generators actually appropriate an authoritative device and offer it to anyone who wants to use it. They appropriate this authority. They can do this thanks to the evolution that the formal device of the ”certificate” has had in the digital era, with the shift from ”original” to “[f]original”. The authenticity of such documents is claimed and acknowledged according to a hallucination which is shared by all, but which is  nevertheless a hallucination. UBERMORGEN.COM programmed machines to generate injunctions, bank statements, interrogation protocols and prescriptions which are unexceptionable in terms of form and content, and which can be put into circulation in the given communication systems, with varying results.” Domenico Quaranta
