Hello, I'm starting to get into generative grammar and syntax trees in order to generate random texts that kind of make sense.

Anybody has tried similar text generative processes already? Any lead for a starter?

If people have already done stuff like this in Max, I'm still interested to hear their approach!

I've found website like this http://thinkzone.wlonk.com/PoemGen/PoemGen.htm, that's a start.

I've been working on something in that area using [dict], but looking at the Poem Generator you could totally make that sort of thing with it if you had lists of nouns, verbs etc. Anyway, here's a fragment:

You might consider the use of Processing or P5js and one of already available libraries for generative/procedural grammar. It's rather simple to connect Processing or P5js sketch to Max via OSC or (for P5js) by loading inside Max [jweb] object.

thanks guys for sharing your ideas! I appreciate.
