In his article "Monomedial Hybridization in Contemporary Poetry" the debate on hybridization tends to overemphasize the blurring of boundari types in all possible forms: combination of types within a given work (multimodal "image comics and photo-novels, sound poetry, etc.), adaptation and remediation one (filmic adaptations of novels or novelizations of films, for instance), and, more generall...

Computational creativity is an area of artificial intelligence that develops algorithms and simulations of creative phenomena, as well as tools for performing creative tasks. In this thesis, we present various computational methods and models of linguistic and musical creativity. The emphasis is on developing methods that are maximally unsupervised, i.e. methods that require a minimal amount of...

The oral component of medieval poetry was integral to its performance and reception. Yet many believe that the medieval voice has been forever lost, and any attempts at rediscovering it are doomed to failure due to scribal practices, manuscript mouvance, and linguistic normalization in editing practices. This paper offers a method to abstract from this noise and better understand relative diffe...

Poems are particular well-crafted formulations of certain messages that satisfy constraints on their form as well on their content. From an engineering point of view, the ability to optimize the combination of form and content is a very desireable feature to be able to model. The present paper reviews a number of efforts at modelling poetry generation computationally, and it brings together ins...
