  4. Quinze aphorismes personnalisés

    In 1985 Paul Braffort and Marcel Bénabou’s program “Fifteen Personalized Aphorisms” was presented at the Centre Pompidou. In the 1990’s, Éric Joncquel created the online version on the ALAMO website. This program is a digital remediation of the Oulipian method of creating aphorisms. The politician Jean Jaurès formulated his famous aphorism “A small bit of internationalism distances us from patriotism, but a lot brings us very close to it” from Roger Bacon’s “A small bit of Science distances us from Faith, but a lot brings us very close to it.” Even though these two sentences discuss two very different subjects, the method of formulating an aphorism allows us to place these two subjects in the same lexical context. At its most essential, an aphorism unites what is separated and separates what is united (this sentence itself is indeed an aphorism!). The four most common tools of doing this in the Oulipian method are equivalence, antithesis, parallelism, and proportion. Jaurès’ quote is an aphorism of implicit proportion because the relationship between the words created by the aphorism is not immediately obvious.

  7. World Clock

    World Clock tells of 1440 incidents that take place around the world at each minute of a day. The novel was inspired by Stanislaw Lem’s “One Human Minute” and Harry Mathews’s “The Chronogram for 1998.” It celebrates the industrial concept of time and certain types of vigorous banality which are shared by all people throughout the world. This novel was generated with 165 lines of Python code, all of which were written by the author in about four hours on November 27, 2013. The only external data source that is used in the generation process is the computer’s time zone database. The source code is available under a free software license at http://nickm.com/code; anyone is welcome to use that code to generate their own novel or for any other purpose. World Clock was generated as part of the first "NaNoGenMo" or National Novel Generation Month, which was declared on Twitter this year as a response to, and alternative to, the better-known NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month).
