I was trained as a poet, but I have become a reader of the machine. I like to cultivate the “boteity” of the computer: producing surprising results for the human. Crevices where something without ego, without logic (other than that of the programmer), and without reason, a full immanence, expresses itself.

These poems are the result of a Markov chain generated through Python. Sometimes in the poem, the text generated by the Markov chain appears without modifications. Sometimes the script repeats, alliterates, shifts words or verses from the result that the chain provides. The database includes texts from literature, philosophy, history, academic writings, and novels.
