A Short Explanation of the Beast Bot

I put up the Beast Bot a little over a year ago, after I discovered the Chomsky Bot. I thought it would be a fun idea to do the same thing, except with quotes from Aleister Crowley. I'm not a Thelemite myself, but I have many friends who are, and I felt his writing style was well-suited for a random text generator. You'll notice that all of the sentences generated by the Beast Bot are grammatically correct, yet, for the most part, they do not make any sense. For those of you who have read much Crowley, the same could also be said of him. In fact, the Beast Bot sometimes makes even more sense than the Great Beast himself!

If you want more technical information on how the Beast Bot works, check out the foggy faq. Foggy is the natural language program (NLP) which was the basis for both the Chomsky Bot and the Beast Bot. For those of you who have no idea who Aleister Crowley is, please check out this Thelema Home Page for a general overview of Crowley and Thelema.

Note to those linking to the Beast Bot: I really appreciate your links to the Beast Bot, but please link to this page instead of the Beast Bot itself, both because this page provides an introduction to the Beast Bot and also because the URL for the Beast Bot will be changing some time with the next couple of months. Thanks! You also might want to consider subscribing to my mailing list which announces changes to this web site. I highly recommend that people who link to any of my pages subscribe to this list.
