ribbon logic

2026 / circuitpython / markov chain / semantic corpus

a small button-press poetry object. a markov chain built from my own freewriting meets vocabulary pulled from the class's hand-tagged semantic corpus, and a rejection rule refuses any word tagged cold, sharp, or academic. each press shifts the temperature between cool, neutral, and warm and picks a new poem form.
