Words are repeated many times in different ways. Display Poem1 stanzas one at a time to user, each time replacing more words with gibberish. Also continue to replace words that were previously defined, to help with learning the language. Repeated chorus could either: 1) Change into gibberish, which would make learning gibberish easier 2) Stay the same, grounding the piece a little more and emphasizing the shift of the rest of the lines to nonsense that reader must define. <-- I'm leaning towards this **Part 2** Poem2 = exclusively words used in Poem1 that were turned to gibberish and defined by the user. Program subs in words from gibberish dictionary into Poem2. I have different ideas for visual presentation of this. 1) Gibberish poem presented next its translation using the user's definition 2) Gibberish poem and user can check definitions by hovering over a gibberish word 3) Begin with one poem and then have all the letters flicker through the user's definition and the original poem's word. Each letter's flickering would work independently of all the others, so that none of the poems can be distinguished apart from each other. Instead, the reader interprets them as a single, fluid poem, written by me, the computer, and themselves. I'm leaning towards the last one because of the clearer message of strong aesthetic appeal, but I wonder whether it's worth sacrificing the 'user writes their own poem' idea I started with (wherein as more words get replaced by gibberish the user is forced to write their own poems within the confines of the format I assign) for the mega-Poem. An option bar to flip through the three poems separately may alleviate this, though I wonder if this undermines the point of the mega-Poem by creating clear boundaries by which the authors can be separated. **Part 3: Etc.** I started this project with the concept of creating a large running dictionary of gibberish on the internet. Though I think my work on the gibberish generator would be helpful for such a project, that seems very separate from the direction I'm currently going. If the interest Dictionary of Gibberish does ever come to be, I think I'm going to snatch the idea Prof said in class about allowing users to generate gibberish until they find one that matches the word they want to create. More clearly, here's how the website's home page would look: A textbox displaying a random gibberish word, a button beneath it labeled "Generate Gibberish," and a textbox beneath that where the user can type in the definition they want to create a word for. Once the user has settled on a gibberish word and definition they want to contribute to the dictionary, they press enter and the word is logged. That line of gibberish can never be generated again. A couple ideas for applications: 1) Plugins that translate as many words into gibberish as possible--this would be nearly impossible but I can dream 2) A dictionary of the website that users can navigate. An un-word of the day featured every day 3) Potentially, people can only ever submit one word, and with it can submit their name or pseudonym, so that their contribution would be documented. Would make people more attached to the dictionary and to contributing good words. `34:[] 2f:{"title":"Dictionary of Gibberish - Fork of Fear","cells":[{"id":684,"value":"md`# Dictionary of Gibberish - Fork of Fear`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs"},{"id":81,"value":"md`

What It Is

`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs"},{"id":82,"value":"md`Gibberish generates original gibberish words and collects user-imputted definitions to write its own unique, grammatically correct -but nonsensical- poetry. Before the writing process begins, the program must compile a list of gibberish with which to write its own poetry. To do so, Gibberish uses a long poem with many repeated words. The program presents each stanza to the user one at a time, replacing more words with gibberish each time and continuing to replace words whose gibberish have been assigned already. To define the word, the user may infer a meaning from many different context clues or simply choose a definition that appeals to them personally. After translating a sufficient number of words, the program will replace the words from a second poem (only composed of words from the first) with their corresponding user-defined gibberish, in a sense writing its own poem.`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs"},{"id":1072,"value":"md`

Why It Is

`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs"},{"id":1070,"value":"md`As readers are prompted to input meaning for gibberish that composes more and more of each poem, they will be forced to shift from uses context clues to find meaning to simply noticing grammatical placement and form. By the end, the reader will create poems with words that they feel connected with. Poetry becomes less about communicating a concrete meaning to the reader and more about providing the reader a scaffolding onto which to project their own thoughts. The poem generated at the end plays with the idea of authorship. Who writes a poem? The original writer, the grammar rules we've inhereited, or the reader who interprets meaning?`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs"},{"id":192,"value":"md`# The Code`","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"ojs"},{"id":1085,"value":"md`
