Creative Code Exercise Three: Taroko Gorge Re-Remix

This week, you’ll be creating a conceptual successor to Nick Montfort’s Taroko Gorge by combining remixed, public domain texts into a generated HTML story or poem. Follow the steps from our in-class combinatorial texts exercise, and convert the results to a HTML page. This doesn’t need to be fancy, and should be inspired by the web poetics of Taroko Gorge and its remixes - it can cycle through possibilities or use a static display at this stage.

Here’s the process from the class demo:

• N+7 example
• Working with Python to scrape / Markov / Centos
• Generating the HTML poem

As with our interactive fiction, upload your HTML version to GitHub and use the Pages link to submit to Moodle before Tuesday’s class.
