1. Robert Coover Criticism Generator

   This is a prose generator, made for the occassion of Robert Coover's retirement from teaching at Brown University and a celebration of his career as an aspect of the 2010 ELO_AI Conference. The generator is based on texts of reviews of Coover's novels and published interviews he has done over the years. The generator pulls from and mashes up these texts, along with images of the novelist found on the Web, to create an almost-plausible critical text that refreshes itself frequently.

   On the occasion of the ELO 2010 conference celebrating Robert Coover, I have devised a 24-channel sound installation/performance.  Given the theme of the conference (Archive & Innovate), I chose to investigate the sonic literary archive, utilizing recordings of Robert Coover in the reading his own work as a framework for this composition.  Through a computational process of spectral analysis, editing, and re-synthesis, solo speech is transformed into a chorus of diffused instrumental timbres.  Time is stretched, allowing the ebb and flow of the original readings to be heard very slowly - creating an ambient, electro-acoustic arena.
