Fascinating, Captain.,

This review is from: The Policeman's Beard is Half Constructed: Computer Prose and Poetry by Racter- The First Book Ever Wrritten by a Computer (Paperback)
The "first book written by a computer" won't win any awards for insight or style, but it certainly will make you smile.Racter seems to have a predilection for lettuce, and for using a plethora of florid adjectives. Some of the jumps in logic (or are they disconnected ideas jammed together?) will have you scratching your head. His poetry is startling and full of gunshots of imagination. But don't blame him -- it's the way he was programmed. Even so, Racter may make more sense than "Finnegans Wake".... Computer-authored books and computer-composed music are in their infancy, but you can be sure there will be more (and better) to come. |
