Instructions

Version 2 Update: Press the flag to begin and think of 10 words to give to WIlliam. Thanks @alirb for the suggestion of adding player input (and for nudging me just a bit further than I thought I could do!) I'm on a train right now and wifi is intermittent. This needs some polishing - specifically, I'm still trying to find a way to remove the randomly selected word from the list (so it doesn't repeat) unitl all the words are used. Any suggestions will be given finger snaps in appreciation.

Description

This is the first time I've played with the string blocks, wihich is part of the reason why I love Getting Unstuck: it challenges me to go beyond what I usually do. This is a short experiment with the "cut-up" (or "decoupe") technique that I first encountered via William Burroughs' "Towers Open Fire." This projects takes a haiku by Kerouac and converts it to a randomized version.
