I think what I'm going to do is make a Sinatra site designed to be read on mobile that uses some bank of text to make some sort of web equivalent to a BS Johnson novel like The Unfortunates. As far as a corpus goes, I was thinking about feeding the thing a long collection of paragraphs or sentences from public domain novels which describe rooms, then chaining them together in some way while generating connective text between them to write a story about passing through dozens and dozens of rooms ordered randomly at page load.
