โOur behavior is a function of our decisions, not our conditionsโ The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, Pos. 952
Networked Optimization is a series of three crowdsourced versions of popular self-help books. Each book contains the full text, which is however invisible, appearing as white text on a white background. The only text that remains readable is the so-called popular highlights โ the passages that were underlined by many Kindle users โ together with the amount of highlighters. Each time a passage is underlined, it is automatically stored in Amazonโs data centers.
