ACTIVITY: Cut Up

This week, club members located texts from Project Gutenberg, an archive of books that have been digitized and made available to everyone, and copied a selection from the texts. The selection was then pasted into the Cut Up Machine, a web-tool that  remixed the selection. The resulting remix was then e-mail to a different member of the club and shaped into something else. See the results below...

the Project Gutenberg library.

a captain and timid educator

he helped Thomas the letter-carrier
shortened with any highest making eventually

awkward sorts jumped
to the way other hand

Thomas, elected in Twyford,
pet his out-door classics

the Doctor's eight learned
that particularly often

wild hands
proved disconcerted changes

of fellow mastership
and awkward spice

passed to the young brothers
to torment the teacher

spirit postman
