The Saga of Pookie & JR Continues

Back in June I adapted Nick Montfort's 1k Python story generator to document my adventures with Ingrid Bachmann's hermit crab Pookie in The Chronicles of Pookie & JR: http://luckysoap.com/lapsuslinguae/2009/06/excerpts-from-chronicles-of-pookie-jr.html

Nick went on to post about it on his blog, Post Position: http://nickm.com/post/2009/07/story-generation-with-pookie-and-jr/ As Nick astutely notes,

Sometimes the reader is left to wonder who the hermit is.

Now NYC-based artist/programmer Ravi Rajakumar has ported the Python script into Javascript to create this web browser friendly version of the Chronicles of Pookie & JR: http://luckysoap.com/pookieandjr/index.html

Here's a screenshot from the Rajakumar iteration:



Every time you click "To be continued..." a new version of the story is generated.
