Osrednji del spomenika je instalacija algoritma kosovel, ki je sestavljen iz numerične in semantične analize Kosovelovega avantgradnega dela, sedmih ključnih enačb iz zgodovine fizike in matematike iz prve polovice 20. stoletja, vektorske analize in reinterpretacije konstruktivističnega Tržaškega ambienta iz leta 1927 ter povezave le-teh z numeričnimi vrednostmi, ki se pridobivajo v realnem času iz različnih komunikacijskih omrežij. Algoritem se izvaja na posebej izdelanem zaslonu resolucije 640x96 pixlov s svetilnostjo 5000 nits, ki je 10, 5m dolg in 1,7 m visok. Druga stran spomenika je namenjena informacijski bazi, povezani s Kosovelovim življenjem in delom, ter njegovi umestitvi v širši umetnostno-zgodovinski in kulturno-politični kontekst. Sistemi za nadzor delovanja spomenika se nahajajo v talni komori pod njim in upoštevajo načrtovano delovanje projekta, saj naj bi spomenik na lokaciji v Tivoliju stal 22 let. Vsebine na spomeniku bi se dopolnjevale z vsebinami na portalu www.kosovel.org . Arhitekturna zasnova temelji na treh prostorskih komponentah: monolitu spomenika z vgrajenimi zasloni, spomeniški podstati s krajino ter tehnološki komori. Vidna materiala monolita sta aluminij in steklo, skrita nosilna konstrukcija je iz jekla, podzemna tehnološka komora je grajena iz betona. Tri osnovne prostorske komponente omogočajo sinergijo visoke tehnologije v parku, ki – v skladu s pogledi 19. stoletja – predstavlja naravo v mestu. Zato spomenik ni zamišljen tako, da bi se zlil s parkom, temveč pomeni novo enkratnost v okolju, ki je namenjeno najširši množici obiskovalcev. Postavljen je na razsežno, prazno ploskev, ki jo njegov dotik upogne, kar se kaže v 22 m dolgi geometrizirani nagubanosti terena. Algoritem kot monolit lebdi nad travnikom.
AKKA participated in the team of artists and architects in the creation of the monument, with specific task to design the monument’s micro landscape. The monument is an installation of the Kosovel Algorithm, composed of numerical and semantic analysis of the avant-garde work of Srečko Kosovel, of seven key equations from the history of physics and mathematics of the first half of the 20th century, of vector analysis and a reinterpretation of the Trieste ambience of 1927 and their correlation with numerical data acquired in real time from various communication networks. The Algorithm is presented on a special screen with 640x96 pixel resolution, 10.5 m long and 1.7 m high. The back side of the monument serves as an information structure related to the life and work of Srečko Kosovel and its broader art-historical and socio-political context. Control systems are housed in an underground chamber and follow the planned project sequence, which should enable the monument to work on this site in Tivoli Park for the next 22 years. The content of the monument would be supplemented with additional content on the website www.kosovel.org. The architecture of the monument consists of three spatial components: a monolith with integrated screens, the base of the monument with its landscape, and the technical equipment chamber. The monolith is a steel structure covered with aluminium and glass, sitting on a concrete underground chamber. The three spatial components enable a synergy of high technology and the park, which – according to 19th century thinking – represents nature in the city. Therefore the monument is not conceived so as to merge with the park, but rather to represent a new entity in the environment, used by masses of people. It is sited on a large, empty plane, warped by its touch, which is manifested in a 22-m-long geometric change of topography. The monolith of the Algorithm then appears to float above the meadow.
