People Reading Poems Written By Computers

Cover of the book The Code Not Taken

This is the final project performance event of Reading and Writing Electronic Text, a class focused on the history and practice of procedurally-generated creative writing. Read more about the class here: http://rwet.decontextualize.com/

This year's event will be held at ITP: 721 Broadway in Manhattan, fourth floor—take the south elevators to your left when you enter the lobby.
