Hey Masto-folks,

Since the Musk Twitter announcement I got a couple of notifications of new followers on this account, which had been dormant since 2019. This served as a nice reminder that the federated world exists, and I'm going to get back to posting on here more.

Few days later sharing this: here's my #nanogenmo entry, "IS_IT_LOVE":

Usually when I generate text, I'm creating what I consider poetry -- I manually cull from much smaller amounts of material. No go when you have to hit a 50,000-word limit. So there's some interesting stuff in here and lots of garbage.

The best mistake: a loop count error causes the frequency of one sentence-ending clause to increase until it's the only one left.

WIP: cheap laugh riot gear, 10/26/18.

initialized in p5js by translating each word rendered in a particular font (Roboto, I think) to points, distorting the points' placements, tracing them, & placing the words randomly on the canvas. The randomness of the placement was a little too aggressive. This is 5 of the 100+ iterations mashed together in GIMP

Some music for a change:

the soundtrack work I did for "The Endodontist," a 1983 low-budget Italian horror film that was thought lost until recently, when I made it up.
