Writing Poetry with Procedure: A Workshop

Writing Poetry with Procedure: A Workshop

Led by Allison Parrish

Description

Practitioners in the field of procedural writing have been using rules, procedures and computer programs to create innovative literary work since the invention of the digital computer. Far from the bland imitation evoked by the phrase "computer-generated poetry," these techniques facilitate the creation of work with aesthetic and emotional affordances sometimes difficult to achieve through conventional compositional techniques: serendipitous beauty, precisely imitative satire, vertiginous wonder at the infinite. In this workshop, participants will learn about the history of computer-generated writing and sample a range of off-the-shelf, freely-available tools on the web to create their own—without writing any actual lines of code. No previous programming experience is required.
