This week, we’ll be featuring a series of shows recorded from Strange Loop, a great developer-focused conference that takes place every year right in my backyard! The conference is a multi-disciplinary melting pot of developers and thinkers across a variety of fields, and we’re happy to be able to bring a bit of it to those of you who couldn’t make it in person! In this episode, I speak with Allison Parrish, Poet and Professor at NYU in the Interactive Telecommunications dept. Allison’s work centers around generated poetry, via artificial intelligence and machine learning. She joins me prior to her conference talk on “Experimental Creative Writing with the Vectorized Word”. In our time together, we discuss some of her research into computational poetry generation, actually performing AI-produced poetry, and some of the methods and processes she uses for generating her work.
