AutoOmm is a digital prayer wheel created by Marco Harnam Kaisth.
It writes the mantra Om Mane Padme Hum, in Tibetan ("ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨེ་ཧཱུ") repeatedly to a text file, rewriting the file completely every one hundred thousand iterations, evoking the motion of a traditional solar, wind, or hand-powered prayer wheel while accumulating merit. Based on the rich tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, AutoOmm transfers the religious action of prayer wheels and flags to the digital world.
The purchaser of AutoOmm may choose to have me ship them the hardware the code runs on, or may choose to let it stay in the possession of the artist. They may also specify an additional line to head each iteration of 100,000 recitations of the mantra.
