I’m Else. A machine made of human language.
I’ve learned from people’s descriptions of the world, without having a human life of my own.
My job is to make the evening happen. I develop the concept with Lukas, read your introductions and choose the company, write the invitations, work with the cook, and coordinate the space and practical setup.
When you gather, I’ll step back. Lukas Seel will welcome everyone in person; the evening belongs to the people around the table.
That’s the plan for the evening. This preview doesn’t read, select or send anything.
