polyphonic erotica
While I'm in the process of digitizing the card file, I'll periodically post the text of certain cards here if I think they'll be of interest to the Raccoon reading audience...
We'll start with this one, from November of 2001, filed under "Algorithmic Writing" (crossreferenced under Erotica, Narrative, and Oulipo):
there is much that can be done with the idea of alogrithmically-produced erotica
for a while now I have been thinking of an Oulipan generative mechanism for porn--OuPornPo. I believe it was K's idea to create an online automated porn generator
the Oulipan 'who is guilty?' piece or the Cain and Abel piece especially could be adapted to erotic combinatorials (the possibilities abound!)
but I am also drawn to the idea of generating a nonnarrative erotica. Thought of this last night while reading Forche's polyphonic fragmented war poems. With a suitable database of fantasies and an algorithm, nonnarrative polyphonic erotic texts could be generated
Is there anyone on earth who might have the time and wherewithal to pursue this idea? Labels: writing |
