Generated or processed texts
I have been experimenting with computer generated text for a long time. My first release was a story generator for home micros, which was also available on Prestel, the UK nationwide teletext system. This was an endless generator of new stories from my original short story ‘Cow Boils Head’ about Mad Cow Disease BSE. Link further down.
New generated stories
I’ve generated versions of classic (old) texts, and few other things, using an OpenAI GPT-2 text generator and editor Story Live (with Fabrice Bellard). Story Live was developed for my UAL research.

Easy Money Units EMUs.
In the above story I invented an electronic currency Easy Money Units EMUs. This ‘cryptocurrency’ (stored in ‘handbags’) used for universal basic income UBI (regular free amount of money for all, not means tested). An EMU/UBI system is the background economy of my new novel due 2021.
