# edition_1753_deepmind-code_contests-readymade

**A Readymade by TheFactoryX**

## Original Dataset
[deepmind/code_contests](https://huggingface.co/datasets/deepmind/code_contests)

## Process
This dataset is a "readymade" - inspired by Marcel Duchamp's concept of taking everyday objects and recontextualizing them as art.

**What we did:**
1. Selected the original dataset from Hugging Face
2. Shuffled each column independently
3. Destroyed all row-wise relationships
4. Preserved structure, removed meaning

**The result:**
Same data. Wrong order. New meaning. No meaning.

## Purpose
This is art. This is not useful. This is the point.

Column relationships have been completely destroyed. The data maintains its types and values, but all semantic meaning has been removed.
