Using Spacy and Tracery, I revisited the digital cut-up I did in #2, and experimented more with what we’ve learned in the past few weeks.
Inspired by Peter Handke’s poem “Song of a Childhood”, I started the experiment with the “When…” structure. This is the first rough draft, which one can tell the story by the key words and characters, even the paragraphs did not form a clear narrative.
Then I tried to place the main characters (Lord, Adam, Eve, the serpent) in the main clause, followed by three clauses. In the end, I kept only Eve in the main clause, it started to look like another story told only from Eve’s perspective. This opens up another space to explore around – the Garden of Eden before the incident happened, the Behind the Scene, etc.
