I’ve turn out to be a bit of obsessive about Mark Pattern’s No Time to Discourse, an interactive map that procedurally generates climate-disaster microfictions and pins them to areas throughout america.
Mark’s map impressed me to create MultiVerse – a small interactive map that generates a poem for any location a consumer chooses. That experiment has now led me to my newest mission: a location-based love-story generator.
Meet Cute is a playful strategy to think about romance within the locations greatest. Utilizing its interactive map, you select a location – your hometown, your favourite trip spot, or perhaps a metropolis you’ve by no means been to – and watch as a singular micro love-story is generated set in your chosen location.
Behind the scenes, the Overpass API is used to discover a city close to the consumer’s clicked location after which a customized RiTa.js grammar weaves collectively character names, settings, and love obstacles – all tied to the city you chose.
At its coronary heart, Meet Cute’s grammar follows a easy love-story arc: two individuals meet, an impediment comes between them, and that impediment is both overcome… or not.
I used to be additionally desirous about seeing if AI might do a greater job at producing micro-fiction love tales. I due to this fact fed Google AI Studio the immediate ‘Create an interactive map. When a consumer clicks on the map write a micro-fiction love-story primarily based on that location‘. In response to my immediate Google AI Studio created this Map of Love Tales (you could want to attach with a Google account to see the map).
I feel that it is a very spectacular end result from such a easy immediate. I’m certain it may very well be improved past recognition by giving AI Studio additional prompts – probably about extra map options and the construction of the created love-story.
