Wanted to join in last year, but couldn't finish it finally. This year I might do better!

Details coming soon!

I'm thinking of a dark poetry book, with generated content. I have made a few scripts some time ago to generate hilarious black metal lyrics, I want to polish those scripts and reuse them to generate the poems. Wrap it up with some Lovecraftesque background story and some Latex to create a nice PDF.

The original scripts are written in Python, the basic idea is to grab all lyrics of a band from Dark Lyrics, clean it up and use Markov-chains to generate the new lyrics. I found that the Norwegian band Immortal's lyrics work great with it! Examples coming.

"The doom of all fiery fate Demons until the final call Our battle will be remembered We're the tyrants throne From the north arise I can't resist the taste from the cold winds of death Return to the North"
