1. Suicide in an Airplane

   Suicide in an Airplane is a flash-based algorithmic poem/painting in black and white. Poet Brian Kim Stefans, using text derived from pages of The New York Times, has created a work in which terms associated with a hijacking incident randomly appear on the screen. The words, which have the appearance of pencil doodling, break into separate letters and chaotically bounce around the screen, sometimes disintegrating on impact with other text, other times moving about in what seems to be a floating anagram. Accompanied by tone cluster piano chords in a composition by Leo Ornstein, the text seems to pulse with the music. At times, letters fly into objects constructed of other text and explode in sync with music that mimics the scream of jet engines.

6. Taroko Gorge

   A poetry generator produced first in Python and then implemented in Javascript, Montfort's "Taroko Gorge" generates nature poetry about the national park of the same name in Taiwan. Since its initial publication, the program has been hacked, remixed, and reimplemented by a number of other authors.

8. Fred & George

   Fred and George Weasley are the redheaded twins from the Harry Potter series and this poem poses them as lovers, endlessly stroking (etc.) fingers, wands, mouths, etc. and generally engaging in acts considered taboo for siblings in most cultures. This “Taroko Gorge” remix has the distinction of having the shortest data set among the remixes to date, proving that when one wishes to produce an endless poem, size doesn’t matter. More importantly, it concentrates the number of permutations of its elements so while it becomes repetitive sooner, it also takes less time to reach its conceptual climax.

9. Toy Garbage

   This generative poem re-purposes the code in “Tokyo Garage” and produces a remix of “Taroko Gorge” that is also an inversion of the natural world. As the poem unfolds like an endless stream of Toy Story outtakes (in which toys gain a life of their own when away from the children that own them), but with other older toys, many of which are no longer in circulation. Words like “toxic” remind us of some of the reasons these toys were recalled or discontinued. (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)
