Once a search query is submitted, the TF-IDF starts to go through all the manifestos in the dataset, to see if a word is used, and if yes, to put it in the list of search results. The list is sorted according to the importance of the word {{ query }} to each manifesto.
The search results are snippets, statements, quotes or questions, threaded together by one single word, create a cross-reading index. The occurances of {{ query }} in the different manifestos, become eachother complexifiers.
[Note on activating]
The TF-IDF algorithm is an activator. Activating non-linear threads through a dataset of words.
As a navigator the algorithm is a provider of order, deciding on the importance of the search term for a manifesto.
The cyber- and technofeminist manifesto are written and published to activate. Declaring intentions, motives or specific views on technology. Their writing styles, different as they are, are often statement-based, short and sometimes militant.
"Nothing should be accepted as fixed, permanent, or 'given' -- neither material conditions nor social forms.." (Xenofeminist manifesto),
"So that is why no revolution should be without her." (The Manifesto of Futurist Woman)
