Little Computer People — Adam
An interactive revival of a 1985 computer-life simulation, documenting Adam’s accelerated days through journals, newspapers, and letters.
Field notes
Adam’s timeline is governed by a simple conversion: 160× speed makes a nine-minute visitor interval equal to one day in his life. The project assigns recurring editorial forms to that clock—nightly journals, Monday newspapers, and letters submitted through the “glass.” The homepage reports zero journal entries and zero paper editions at the time of capture, while the Letters section displays 600, suggesting that the correspondence layer may already be distinct from the publication schedule.
