Explore the fascinating intersection of poetry and randomness in this 10-minute conference talk from !!Con 2024, where computational artist and Seattle-based PhD student Alicia Guo delves into the concept of endless poetry generation. Discover how context-free grammars and random processes create infinite poetic possibilities, while examining different approaches to randomness from pre-computing methods to pseudo and true random generation. Learn about the transformation of randomness from a mere function into a poetic device, drawing from Guo's expertise as a computational artist whose interactive poetry has been featured in publications like Taper, The HTML Review, and Crawlspace. Delivered at !!Con 2024 in Santa Cruz, CA, this presentation offers unique insights into the creative intersection of technology and literary arts.
