I’ve been studying generative poetry ahead of this launch, and it turns out it’s really hard!

So I’ve been writing some poetry of my own and built a little generative poetry studio to experiment with how words are arranged on a page.

The project starts with twenty poems I’ve written. A script uses nine different stroke fonts to generate unique compositions, changing the spacing, scale, and placement of words. It can preserve the original poem, rearrange phrases, or shuffle individual words, while making sure every word appears exactly once.

Each composition can be recreated, refined, and exported as pen paths for drawing with the HandWriter®.

I’m interested in how the arrangement of words changes the way we read a poem, giving the same words a different rhythm and emphasis each time.

Can you guess who this poem is about?
