Computer and Writer: The Centre Pompidou Experiment, by Paul Fournel

  • Desire was to establish an "agreement" between computer science and literature
  • Paul Braffort's Goal:  teach the public/writers about above issue
  • Aided Reading:  some works of literature are easier read/dealt with with the use of a computer - the computer can select and edit.  For example:  Combinatory Literature - manipulation of different strips in "Cent Mill Milliards de Poemes" is difficult to do by hand.  Algorithmic Literature- Episodic series are easily dealt with, with the help of a computer
  • Aided Creation: computer helps in drafting process
