Over the course of Spring semester, eighteen NYU students have engaged in intense electro-textual experiments: composing, mangling, generating and remixing electronic text using the Python programming language. For one night only, these students will gather to present and perform their experiments to the general public.

What to expect: innovative poetic forms, bizarre textual interfaces, generative satire, advanced natural language processing techniques, and more!

Reading and Writing Electronic Text is a course offered at NYU’s Interactive Telecommunication Program. The course is an introduction to both the Python programming language and contemporary techniques in electronic literature. See the syllabus and examples of student work here.

Here's a round-up of performances from last year's class.

Finally, a meetup I can say that I will absolutely, positively be attending. Who's in?

Aww, Greg, that's a bummer. Next time, yeah?
