This page is part of the Special Issue # 28 Writing Machines–Protocols–Feedback. It is provides a record of the various writing machines proposed or made during the production of that Special Issue.
Steve's Writing Machines
Writing Machine # 1
Title: Analog Exquisite Corpse Machine (2025) by Steve Rushton
Machine overview:
Five columns of words which can slide up and down to form new sentences.
A loose interpretation of the Surrealist Exquisite Corpse.
Media: Paper; Libre Office; glue; alphabet (English)
Machine output (example)
Earlier output (1925-26). The first recorded stanza using this form (by André Breton and his Surrealist friends) is recorded as: “The-exquisite-corpse-will-drink-new-wine.”
Writing Machine # 2
Title: The Writing Machine of...(2025) by Steve Rushton.

A HOUSE OF LEAVES
IN A METROPOLIS
USING ALL AVAILABLE LIGHTING
INHABITED BY ALL RACES OF MAN REPRESENTED WEARING PREDOMINANTLY RED CLOTHING
A HOUSE OF ROOTS
IN AN OVERPOPULATED AREA
USING ELECTRICITY
INHABITED BY HORSES AND BIRDS…
A HOUSE OF WOOD

USING ELECTRICITY
INHABITED BY FRIENDS AND ENEMIES"
...and this is an example of the output from The Writing Machine of (2025)...
Output: HTML page of "self-generating poem"
Output: Code of the above (fragment)
Writing Machine # 3
Title: Barthes Radio (c. 2023) Death of the Author (1967) by Roland Barthes read by Xpub + Xpub tutors (2023)

Writing Machines from class: 15-09-2025
Writing Machine Group 1: Multinational Poetry Remix
Protocol:
With a group of people...
1. Pick most well-known poet from each country of origin
2. Pick most well-known poem from this poet
3. Pick first line from first verse
4. Pick first line from second verse
5. Translate these lines
6. Sort countries of origin alphabetically (English names) for the first verse
7. Mirror countries of origin for the second verse
8. Put the lines together in one new poem
Output:
Moonlight before my bed, like frost upon the floor
Do you not see, the Yellow River's waters rushing from Heaven, never to return
Who rides so late through night and wind?
I have no mother, I have no father
If my time should come, I'd like no one to entice me
-
I am but a wild animal, cut from it's kind
I haven't eaten third day
My son, why do you hide your face so anxiously?
Do you not see, before the bright mirror in the high hall, grieving over white hair
I lift my eyes to the mountain moon, then bow them, dreaming of home.
Writing Machine Group 2: Corridors to Home
Rule 1: Writing Machine starts when leaving WDKA building, and ends when arrived at home front door.
Rule 2: Set a timer of x minutes
Rule 3: When the timer goes off, write down the first word you see in your environment.
If no word is shown to you, the word is "and".
Rule 4: Repeat the timer until you get home!
Results:
- Here hello 20 Maasveld zone.
- Centrum den dierenvervoer handgesneden uitgang de huur care bied fresiadreef
- Gratis vapiano big brands bachata treinstel t'Catshuys supermarkt & bakkerij. (WdkA - The Hague Moerwijk, 15.09.25 - every 15')
- Lieflaang specialisten jumbo WC sprinter locale & great outdoors blaak door open. (The Hague Moerwijk - WdKA, 16.09.25 - every 5')
Writing Machine Group 3: The Interpersonal Words Chain (exquisite corpse)
A chain of words, where the starting point is a word from someones personal notes from the class
Each person sees only the word of the person before them, and picks a word from the notes they associate with the previous word
The words are notated on one side of a notebook
The next round goes against reading direction
Words can be read in increments of 5 words, but also by order of the book.
Sentences can be read per 5, the number of the people in the group

Output
A Writing Machine for 22-09-25
Output: page one of the mash up
Protocol: Mash up to be distributed to Xpub students at 14:00hr on 22-09-25 in the Aquarium.
A selection of texts about orality and literacy cut and pasted to make a 7 page PDF.
Mud-cell Poem
Mud-cell Poem is a writing machine powered by The Electric Garden, an artistic research project by Sunjoo Lee. It was developed during the workshop 'Fermenting the Earth, Wiring the Mud' at iMAL, together with Sunjoo Lee, Anna Pastor, and wonderful participants. The Electric Garden emits small electricity gathered by metabolic process of microbial fuel cells. This energy is stored in a capacitor and released once it reaches a certain threshold.
Protocol
When the release happens, it sends raw data, temperature and time to the computer with the help of Arduino. Then from the computer, a script converts these information into a poem. The script uses definitions from Wikipedia and texts that explore the relationship between technology and ecology as an ingredient. These texts are split into phrases under four words, then randomized to form a poem. Each time a pulse of energy is released, one new line of the poem appears on the terminal.

Thought for further discussion
During the development of this project, there were discussions on how the poem should exist. Should it be accessible on the internet for everyone, or remain local close to the garden, for example on an e-ink display? Should the website run on the server powered by the electricity from the garden? Could a poem be written on a soil traced by a plotter? Is the poem infinite or will parts of it be deleted over time?

Robin and Ema's State Machine
Bart and Daan's Writing Machine
Sibyl, Kiki, Tommi's Writing Machine
Glyphica Text Machine
Protocol
- Play one round of "Glyphica"
- Record all keystrokes you make—for example with libinput on Wayland or xinput on X11.
- Run a bash script to remove irrelevant characters and replace "SPACE" strings with actual whitespace characters. I used sed, but other stream editors like grep would also work.
- Note: The game does not require you to type spaces between words, but it can be done to improve the readability of the text.
- NYI: Try to get rid of the "FFKPFFFFF" string at the beginning. Map "Z" and "Y" correctly.
Script
#!/bin/bash
sed -n -E 's/.*(KEY_.* *1).*/\1/p' $1 | sed -z 's/KEY_//g;s/ *1//g;s/\n//g' | sed 's/SPACE/ /g' > "$1.keys"

The Beatles session
Everything that Ema did was based on The Beatles.
✦ Hey Jude - Cover by The Beatles, Radio Tuning Version.
A version of “Hey Jude” composed solely of words that appear in other Beatles songs.
Created by Ema Note: Soon i will post a video of it on YT
Example:
Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
(hey → Can be found in: Boys [line 5] + Boys [line 5])
(don't → Can be found in: Boys [line 23] + Boys [line 47])
(make → Can be found in: Please Please Me [line 23] + Little Child [line 19])
(bad → Can be found in: Misery [line 1] + Misery [line 7])
҈ FuN FaCT ҈
'Hey Jude' can also be rendered as a State Machine
🛠 How it's Made
⋄ I built a script to scrape AZLyrics in order to collect all 176 lyrics of all the original studio version of the songs from The Beatles to store them in a JSON file
{
"title": "Song Title",
"lyrics": "Song \nLyrics"
}, ...
⋄ I built another script to find all the matching words from 'Hey Jude' (The lyrics of this song were on a different JSON) into the entire discography of The Beatles. Matches were narrowed down to just 2 results per word (see example above).
⋄ Download the 35 songs that have a match, by using @iamdefinitelynotabot bot on Telegram made by my close friend Ramin
command used: .a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YourLink
⋄ Use of Moises: an app that separate all the different stems of an audio file, so only the voice can be edited in order to have a consistent instrumental base from the original song underneath
⋄ Use a DAW to edit the final audio output (cutting & stretching bits of audio)

Psychogeographic Writing Machine
A writing machine based on Wilfried Hou Je Berk's psychgeographic walks. More info in this blog post!
Protocol:
[A / The] second turn right [In a] first turn left [Is walking on] first turn right [Wondering about] first turn left repeat
Output:
A lichen made from metal In a barrel overflowing with oil Is walking on balding trees Wondering about a house of cannibal queens
Surveillance In a screaming scull Is walking on decorative butt plugs Wondering about a spy
The headless braid In a puddle growing larger Is walking on an animal guard Wondering about time to go back
The Dragon of Arnhem
You go over to the bridge over the Rhine river, and you see Clara kneeling over a baby. She begs you to go and save yourself and the baby. What do you do?
Option A: Obey her. Take the baby and run. Ending: She is found dead the next morning with her head gone.
Option B: You stay behind to protect her, fighting off the undead horde. Ending: You die and she turns into the Dragon of Arnhem.
