Signals is Richard Carter’s speculative attempt at generating poetry using the mathematical language of Lincos, a system designed by Hans Freudenthal in 1960 as a method of communicating with extra-terrestrials. Accompanying each visual poem is a visual rendering of data from the Kepler telescope as it searched for habitable planets and alien life. Signals has an introduction written by the artist, which explains the concept, history and process of composition of the texts.

Richard Carter is an artist exploring the more-than-human within digital activities, objects, and environments. Richard's practice traverses both the technical and the textual, developing hybrid works that tell different stories about the contemporary world.
