PataLiterator

PataLiterator was a HyperCard system authored by mIEKAL aND, that manufactures a neologistic vocabulary, hence literature, by generating either single words or texts up to forty pages using an amenable database of phonemes and syllables. PataLiterator attempts to apply "the art of hyperpataphysics" to Alfred Jarry's late-nineteenth-century proclamations. The work opens with a screen that shows Jarry's "Ubu" and presents four buttons "About", "Help", "Start" and "More". The interface allow the viewers to produce text and alter the databases that feed the output.
