Evil Ellipsoids and Spheres (Poinsot’s Paper Spaceship #4)

Do you remember how photo negatives looked like? The inverted versions of the most common colors looked so unreal. Hues of orange, violet, or cyan that you never saw in the real world. Happy smiling human people looked like turquoise zombies with an evil grin. When creating this geometric drawing, I haven’t been thinking about…
Lissajous Subversion

Today’s artwork looks out of character, but it matches the colors of elkement’s – The Subversive El(k)ement’s – first home on the web! Red. Bold. Weird. Experimental. Playing with dancing 3D Lissajous figures again. Putting them in quadrants again. I want to create something energetic and aggressive. Not for your chill-out area, but maybe for…
Reverse Turing Test Fail: Kandinsky Saw the Dark Side of the Moon

I saw tweets by desperate students. Professors believed their essays had been written by AI. Because some AI checker software said so. I read heart-breaking stories of artists. Their creations were not accepted for contests because somebody or some software said “This might be an AI image”. You need to monitor yourself and track your…
Hyperbolic Text

Hyperbolic Text * this improvement comes at the cost }{ of the visual-semantic hierarchy }{ since symmetry is straightforward * Fortunately, hyperbolic space is }{ like ‘exhausted doggo’ or ‘so cute <3’ }{ the time interval between two debates can vary widely * we propose to perform aggregation in tangent space }{ to produce literal…
Prismatic. Dispersed. Triangular.

I am trying to co-operate with ChatGPT, creating Found Poetry, again. Rules and process: I pick the title, then I prompt ChatGPT: Write the opening paragraph of a novel titled: Prismatic. Dispersed. Triangular. The bot creates a paragraph, I pick a short phrase. This becomes the first of each ‘stanza’, in italics. I use this…
Electromagic ~~~ Appeal of Antique Scientific Instruments

A collage of images and a collage of words. The images are public domain technical drawings related to electromagnetism. The lines of the poem are my prompts, followed by phrases from the first Google search results prompted by it. ~~~ Electromagic explore the illuminating history seamless and unforgettable Metal and Wood memory building work…

Lone Black Telephone

It’s a relic of the Cold War era. It is black. Once shiny Bakelite became dull. Maybe it was the chemicals. It found shelter in a darkroom. In a research center dismantling its nuclear reactor. There was no future for nuclear science after the iron curtain had crumbled. It was voiceless, robbed of its carbon…
Creative Process. Evolution.

My creative process has been evolving gradually in the past year. ~ I am thinking about a little piece of physics, and how it is described with math. ~ Then I am creating a SageMath notebook (plus custom code) that outputs a set of functions as parametric curves in a three-dimensional space. Here, diffraction patterns…
Have We Changed After All?

A poem from googled snippets of text – details on the creative process at the bottom of this post. ~ ~~ ~~~ Have We Changed After All we’re unearthing the biggest questions Why do we have such strong preferences If we think we know better struggling to believe that God will provide traverse this landscape…
The Subtle Power of the Top Snippet. A New Sub-Genre of Google Poetry.

New game, new rules! I have tried to make the rules tougher! Here is some context and history. [*] The major challenge in this game is one strange attractor: All the poetic chaos is finally is sucked into this black-hole: Dictionaries and thesauruses. I’ve used a private browser window with both preferred language and display…
Bing Says We Are Weird. I Prove It. Using Search Term Poetry.

Bing has done so repeatedly: In order to learn more about this fundamental confusion I investigated my Bing search terms. [This blog has now entered the phase of traditionally light summer entertainment.] Rules: _______________________ you never know my life and my work is life just about working please try to give a substantial answer element…
Self-Sufficiency Poetry

Our self-sufficiency quota for electrical energy is 30%, but what about the garden? Since I haven’t smart metered every edible wildflower consumed, I resort to Search Term Poetry and random images. This is a summer blog post, lacking the usual number crunching and investigative tech journalism. Search terms are from WordPress statistics and Google Tools.…
Blinded by the Light: Links Not Considered Click-Worthy

I promised more experimental internet poetry — here it is! The problem: Spam comments have petered out, their number seems to scale with posting frequency. The quality of search terms for this blog has improved, and most terms are technical and dull. I turned to untapped raw material – finally I know what last year’s…
What the Internet Asks of Me

… via search terms submitted by blog visitors, of course! This is a cross-over of search term poetry and using search terms for serious investigations: A collection of phrases from 2015 WordPress statistics, plus comments [in italics and bold]. As usual, phrases are unedited except from truncations at beginning and end, and I have added…
Crowdsourcing Poetry (Again)

This is Search Term Poetry created from terms harvested in the second quarter. I even owe the post’s title to a valuable searcher. As usual, all lines are taken from search terms in WordPress Stats – no editing allowed except for truncation at the beginning and the end of phrases. But I could not resist…
Search Term Poetry – Spring Edition

Dear Google, you do still encrypt your search results. As a security enthusiast I should like this but I rather suspect you want me to use your AdWords tools. Please stop showing me ads for your “starter package” on all social networks, and give me the raw material for my poetry back. For now I…
Search Term Poetry Sans Google

Times have been rough for search poets since Google has decided to encrypt search results. But you could also argue that search terms should be more non-mainstream, hip, and sophisticated now as submitted by users preferring non-mainstream search engines. So this is Google-less search term poetry, created from terms harvested in Q4 2013. As usual, lines…
