Spam is the garbage of the Internet. If this digital garbage doesn't pollute directly, it requires electicity and thus pollutes indirectly.

The artwork is a method to compensate this waste. Spam, or any other text, can be sent to the system and will then be converted into an image of a tree. The algorythm is made to create unique images from unique texts. When one of these unique works of art is sold, a real tree will be planted in the world in order to neutralise the initial carbon footprint.

As a result a unique artwort generator converts text to images which are representive of the text and the concept is brought into the real world by planting trees.
