A zine of poetry generated using GPT-2, openAI's text-generating model.

Lots of fragments previously only shared on twitter (or not at all), put together into a zine/pamphlet. Most of these were made with Renaissance or Victorian verse used as seed texts, or as training texts. There are a few oddities threaded in that used very different seed texts. 

I think of this pamphlet as fragments of verse from a past that never was.
