Introduction to Tracery

A very brief introduction to Tracery, a computer language for random text generation originally developed by Kate Compton. This brief introduction draws from Allison Parrish's excellent Tracery Tutorial (http://air.decontextualize.com/tracery/).

Lab Series Two: More Writing for Computers

Notes for Lab Series Two of Intro to Digital Humanities. The theme is ABCD: Algorithms, Bots, Code, & Data. We are learning about algorithmic thinking and code via Tracery and Cheap Bots Done Quick before hacking existing Python scripts to create the same Twitter bots we're making in CBDQ. In addition to bot poetry, the Lab Series ends with PoemBot: an app (and/or machine) for sharing pocket-sized poems for National Poetry Month.
