Circa 1952 word-replacement algorithm for doggerel poetry
In 1952, Christopher Strachey wrote a combinatory algorithm for the Manchester Mark 1 computer which could create love letters. The poems it generated have been seen as the first work of electronic literature[1] and a queer critique of heteronormative expressions of love.[2][3][4]
