2. Debasheesh Parveen and Ariadna Alfil

   These two “Facebots” (Facebook bots) were created in the last days of 2009 and quickly began to make friends, post images, and make cryptic status updates, commenting on each other’s updates. They started a relationship on January 13, 2010 and got married (that is, changed their relationship status to “married” on Facebook) on March 21, 2010. Ever since they have both been making status updates automatically every hour, (Ariadna every 2 hours) using the algorithm described below:

   Debasheesh Parveen is one of the 99 Sacred Names of the Internet. It is also an algorithm:

   1. Debasheesh Parveen takes a random news headline from the Al Jazeera feed.
   2. The headline is distorted using a text-manipulation algorithm.
   3. One of the words of the headline is chosen to search for an image on the Internet.
   4. The headline and the image are posted to Debasheesh Parveen’s Facebook profile.

   This happens automatically, at regular intervals.

   Quoted from I ♥ E-Poetry entry and Tisselli's description.

3. Wittenoom: speculative shell and the cancerous breeze

   This award-winning responsive poem focuses on the Australian ghost town Wittenoom, abandoned due to toxic dust caused by asbestos mining. Each of its nine parts focuses on an aspect of the abandoned town and consists of an image from Wittenoom, generally portraying urban decay, an brief looping instrumental audio track, links to other parts of the poem, a title for the section, and a text accessible through different responsive interfaces. A brief parenthetical help text near the bottom left corner of each screen provides encouragement that hints at the interface, promting readers to explore the interactivity and intuit its internal logic. The thematic focus and consistent visual design pull the work together, while the varied interfaces lead to new explorations of the spaces, together producing an experience both jarring and immersive.

4. Willy Shakes

   “Willy Shakes” was programmed by Joshua Strebel in 2009 and set into motion publishing the complete works of William Shakespeare on Twitter, calculating that “every 10 minutes a new line, 24/7/365. Should take about 2 years, 13 days… and finish around August 24th 2011.” (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)
