Dynamo
Foreword: This is… a kind of experimental poetic form that I just thought of playing with. It mixes English with programming language. So it’s pretty nerdy on two fronts, but if you understand basic programming, it should be… interesting? I don’t know. Also, it’s not any specific language, just very basic elements.
include night;
while(darkness >= light){
print or make light;
echo some sound;
if(sound reverberates){
“listen close” – “close, listen”;
break;
}
make some light; print some light; end the night;
}
if (too bright){
for(i; gradually fade away; ++i){
Dim(lights);
- – Sun(decrement);
print horizon;
+ + Moon(increment);
}
echo “beautiful.purple.red.”sky fire”;
Set(Sun);
Raise(Moon);
Break.
Postscript: it’s about night turning to day and the sun setting and stuff. Very basic, just trying to get a feel for this new form that… I’ve never seen anyone else do. Maybe if it works better, it’d be pretty cool… I dunno.
Reminds me of something one might see on XKCD, heh. But clever!
ooo this is cool!
I wish I understand programming so I could read it.
If YWW was happening, this would be an awesome lesson to teach in the program.
