1. Tasty Gougère

   This generative poem is dedicated to the gourmand in all of us. Though perhaps it’s more interested in exorcising it through health awareness. The poem itself is a remix of “Taroko Gorge” based on eating deliciously fatty and unhealthy foods, such as the Gougère from the title, but Burgess adds two other factors: one is an LDL cholesterol counter that counts up to 160 and provides advice on seeking medical attention, and another is a marquee strip that scrolls information on high levels of triglycerides and cholesterol levels. The masterstroke in this variation is the use of the “path” function in the code, which instead of revealing a monkey or Captain Kirk, it produces the phrase “myocardial infarction.”

2. Walt FML Whitman

   This poetic mashup Twitter bot places Walt Whitman in conversation with contemporary people expressing their frustrations in social networks. To be precise, he repurposes Darius Kazemi’s “Latour Swag” code to remix two different Twitter sources: @TweetsOfGrass and original tweets with the #fml hashtag.

3. My Imaginary Well-Dressed Daughter

   A Pinterest board where pinned fashion photos of children are captioned to tell the story of little Quinoa and her rich and fashion-savvy friends. While not exactly a narrative, the board does draw a picture of a family and its friends that simultaneously mocks both the fashion industry and the showing off of children that can happen in social media.

4. You and We

   You and We allowed web visitors to upload texts and images, which were then randomly juxtaposed by the web-based application in time with music. As of July 2013, the piece no longer functioned in the browser.

6. ION 1

   ION 1 is a crowd-sourced series of 111 sound poems-in-progress by mic mac (Michael MacKenzie) in collaboration with the Post Art Poets spanning Gertrude Stein's ‘Tender Buttons’ (which can be freely read here: www.bartleby.com/140/). The work layers 7 (and in later instances as many as 32) readings of the ‘Tender Buttons’ poems into single clips. To participate, unaltered found or original human voice recordings may be submitted and will appear in subsequent installments of the poem. Send submissions to my email (below). An award system (called Copycoins) provides funds for more in-depth interaction with the poems. Statistics particular to each reading will appear in the sound-files’ [Youtube] descriptions. Each of the poems here are in their seventh installment. The playlists will grow and be modified as time passes; the poem is expected to run indefinitely - until I or the community lose(s) interest in it. Thank you.

7. Cierniste diody / Thorny diods

   This is a digital embezzlement of Bruno Schulz’s short story “Sierpień” (“August”). Some of the nouns have been cut out of Schulz’s text and randomly replaced with words taken from the book Polski Fiat 125p. Budowa. Eksploatacja. Naprawa (“Polish Fiat 125p: Construction, Use, Repair”). (source: ELO 2015 catalog)

8. newscomic

   Newscomic recycles the news, re-mixes it, subverts and distorts it.
   It takes live news feeds (RSS feeds) from major news sources, chops them up at random and puts the resultant text into speech bubbles in a comic. The comic illustrations reflect the current latest news, and are regularly updated to keep up with the news. The result is a disjointed comic, where the words and pictures don't quite fit but make their own story.

   Often the story is quite surreal, but can by chance make sense, and even be quite revealing.
   To make the story more fun, you can contribute by adding your own words and sentences (up to a hundred characters long). These replace the word 'the' and other characters in the speech text. You can use this to perhaps get your own views across, or to manipulate the story so it makes more sense to you. Your word or sentence is stored and seen by the world until the next person comes along, and adds their words, replacing yours.

10. Mastering the Art of French Cooking and Systems Theory

    Mastering the Art of French Cooking explores variable communications platforms and randomly accelerated speeds of reading. The work projects a four-column machine-based mode of reading two works that are difficult to master: Julia Child's The Art of French Cooking, and a text by Niklas Luhmann on the subject of systems theory. The default speed of reading is set at 1200 words per minute but is variable and may be changed by adjusting the URL.
