It’s too bad Sammy just shows pictures and doesn’t give instructions or explanations. Some of the pics are self-explanatory but not all.

Congratulations & oh-my-god-that’s-funny for the NPR segment concerning Pentametron. An informal survey of the Big I gives no indication that the program has ever been put online. As a programmer who has attempted computer generator of ekphrastic poetry/prose by Markov Chain analysis from an source corpus (like yours, Web scraping an Internet feed), but found an early impediment in scansion analysis. I wonder that you may write a semi-technical analysis of your program and place it on your site, with emphasis on the aforementioned?

I have many links and notes from that period, but I find now that many are dead links; however, the following paper has been the most inspirational to me:

… and this has been the most fun (not technically poetry):

(refresh the page for more examples)

… and this one seems most like your Pentometron:

“Google Poem Generator” late of http://leevilehto.net/
(not available any more)

Thanks for making me smile today!….
