I recently came across, The Deletionist automatically producing an erasure poem from any Web page. It systematically removes text to uncover poems, discovering a network of poems called “the Worl” within the World Wide Web. You have to save the result as an image. I've experimented a bit, but haven't posted any of the results yet.<a href="http://www.thedeletionist.com/about.html#about" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">http://www.thedeletionist.com/about.html#about</a>

I joined a <a href="https://c.im/tags/Mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Mastodon</a> instance back in April of last year, when the threat of Muskification of Bird began looming on the horizon. By January of this year, I began thinking about the overabundance of material-topics I had for potential posting. Three projects also came to mind. 1) A <a href="https://c.im/tags/TarotCard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TarotCard</a> layout based on <a href="https://c.im/tags/Narrative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Narrative</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/PlotLine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PlotLine</a>.

lizruestHere's one of the first pages in that overstuffed altered book. The two bits on the left went on first, and today, the brown scribbles were a great match.

lizruestIt's a slow week for art, but my altered spelling book still calls to me as I walk by. I'm pleased to say that I've completed a full pass -- something on each of 65 page spreads.
