MYPOCKET is a living physical/digital process that predicts what will I buy next. It explores and reveals essential patterns in the daily transactions of my bank account and discloses my personal financial records to the world. Archived on the site, and updated daily, more than three years of my spending history is analyzed by the custom software to predict future spending everyday; these predictions sometimes determine my future choices, creating a system in which both the software and myself adapt to one another. Influenced by today's techno-cultural milieu, MYPOCKET presents a hybrid interface to this living physical/digital process.
