NaNoGenMo
Tiny Protests
This perl script generates a 50,000+ "word" (based on the average of 6 characters per word) protest march.
Huge thanks to Nick Montfort, who provided the inspiration with his Nano-NaNoGenMo spinoff concept, which lowered the technical bar enough for me to adapt Milton Lรคufer's code for "A Plot."
Here's the code:
perl -e 'sub n{(split/ /,"๐คจ ๐ง ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ฃ ๐ ๐ซ ๐ฉ ๐ฅบ ๐ข ๐ญ ๐ค ๐ ๐ก ๐คฌ ๐คฏ ๐ณ ๐ฅต ๐ฑ ๐จ ๐ฐ ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ค ๐คญ ๐คซ ๐ถ ๐ ๐ ๐ฌ ๐ ๐ฏ ๐ฆ ๐ง ๐ฎ ๐ฒ ๐ฅฑ ๐ต ๐คฎ ๐ค ๐ค")[rand 45]}print"Tiny Protests\nLeo Flores\n โ๏ธ\n\n ๐ณ๐บ๐ธ๐โฒ๏ธ๐ฒ\n";for(;$i<33333;$i++){print"๐ข\n๐ข".n.n.n.n.n.n.n}print"\n IMPEACH TRUMP!\n"'
And here's the code I shared on Twitter, which was reading some emoji as more characters than my text editor:
Twitter version: perl -e 'sub n{(split/ /,"๐คจ ๐ฃ ๐ ๐ซ ๐ฉ ๐ฅบ ๐ข ๐ญ ๐ค ๐ ๐ก ๐คฌ ๐คฏ ๐ณ ๐ฅต ๐ฑ ๐จ ๐ฐ ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ค ๐คญ ๐คซ ๐ ๐ ๐ฌ ๐ ๐ฏ ๐ฆ ๐ง ๐ฎ ๐ฒ ๐ต ๐คฎ ๐ค ๐ค")[rand 36]}print"Tiny Protests\nLeo Flores\n โ๏ธ\n\n ๐ณ๐บ๐ธ๐โฒ๏ธ๐ฒ\n";for(;$i<33333;$i++){print"๐ข\n๐ข".n.n.n.n.n.n.n}print"\n IMPEACH TRUMP!\n"'

This is the latest iteration of a concept I first developed as a Twitter bot, and later as a minimalist e-poem for Taper.
Here's a link to the Twitter bot version, which marches every hour on a variety of topics and in many different protest configurations: @TinyProtests
Here's a link to the Taper version, which places @TinyProtests in conversation with the Puerto Rico themed @Protestitas bot: TinyProtests/Protestitas.
Enjoy!
I authored the bot. Waliya is studying it for his MA thesis.
