Elisabeth Sweet is a poet exploring patterns of randomness. She writes and mediates on the dualistic nature of perception, on what is seen and unseen. Her online presence began anonymously as Species of Value, under which she self-published her poetry and discovered web3. She attended the Glitch Residency in 2023, and her poetry has been exhibited in New York City, Paris, South Florida, and Tallinn.
