Description
Poetry. Fiction. Literary Nonfiction. Artificial Intelligence. Digital Humanities. The poems in ARTICULATIONS are the output of a computer program that extracts linguistic features from over two million lines of public domain poetry, then traces fluid paths between the lines based on their similarities. By turns propulsive and meditative, the poems demonstrate an intuitive coherence found outside the bounds of intentional semantic constraints.
