[So I've been
tinkering with Infinite Monkeys' ngram generation algorithm. The original
algorithm chose two links in the ngram chain at random and then rolled their
weights against each other to pick a winner. The result was geared toward more
instead of less randomness. A new algorithm considers all links in the chain,
and rolls each of their links (randomly) against their weight. The result is
more repetitive and less random, though no less interesting. The algorithm is
cited below.]
#1. Create array of (number of links) length called pick{nLinks)
#2. Create a variable which stores the "winner"
#3. Create a loop which cycles through the links &
a) rolls the link strength against the random number generator
b) determines if the roll is larger than the largest roll
c) stores the link and the roll strength in a variable
d) reloop
Aside from adding punctuation, and making a few
excisions, the result is mostly unedited by a human hand. The "bias"
or source texts were my own works, what I like to call the Tolkacz bias. This
was in turn generated out of several biblical texts such as Revelation, thus
the religious fervor of the output, which I (at least) find to be comical. I
realize that the nature of these texts often offends the predilections of those
in the liberal humanities but this is largely the point. This is kind of satire
by reflection. Revelation is a sort of "script" which depending on
who you ask has played itself, is in the process of playing itself out, or will
in the future play itself out, or (perhaps ironically) all three. The book
itself is of special relevance to me considering as it was a kind of plain
sight code which was meant to be understood by those within the inner circle of
nascent Christian church. It functions as a script on multiple levels. Firstly,
it prophecies a future which has yet to come to pass. It functions iteratively
and has a sort of circular geometry to its construction not unlike the book of
Job. It is a sort of attempt to code (pun intended) reality itself. By
predicting the future, we help create it; by assuming it's true, we make it
real..
