_{在这个后真相的数码拟态世界，现实中的的人们接受到的信息都是经过选择和过滤的。热搜将这些信息送到我们面前，在我们网民无法出门的时候，它们就会成为门外今日世界的样子——欢迎来到实在界的大荒漠。}

_{同时，热搜作为一个最大众化的获取信息的渠道，它的数据再现了人们对于事件的反馈和消化结果。我们在屏幕上点击和浏览，处于热搜上的事件也不断更替，有的长时间处于热搜上，而有的一会儿就消失不见了。作为接收信息的一方，人们常常用发酵来形容升温的事件，我把这些事件做成面包尝试模拟不同事件的发酵。我将每一个事件都对应成一个面包的制作过程，并定义了一个规则，通过 python收集热搜上的数据并将它们转换成食谱，用一个材料收集器收集所需要的材料来制作面包，由于数据的不同，面包也长成了不同的样子。}

We live in a digitalized post-truth world of "pseudo-environments”. The information people receive in real life is filtered and selected. “Trending searches” become what the world looks like to us netizens when people quarantine at home -- welcome to the desert of the real.

Meanwhile, Trending as one of the most popular channels of information acquisition, its data also represents people's feedback and understanding of those information. Topics on Trending are constantly changing due to people‘s clicks and browsing. Some can stay on Trending for a long time, and others disappear after a while. As the recipient of information, people often use ‘fermentation’ to describe events keep simmering. I made these events into bread to simulate the fermentation of different events.

Corresponding each event to a bread making process, I collect the data on the Trending and convert them into recipes. Next, I use a material collector to collect the required materials to make bread. Bread made from different data will look different due to different proportions of ingredients and fermentation time.
