Abstract: A computer program product and method for installing downloaded software on a client system over a network is described. The product and method include generating an access key by receiving an installation key produced using a random number generated from a seed that is the value of a client system internal clock at the exact moment in time to the millisecond at which a software installation program was run on the client produce the access code by modulo combining the installation key and user name received by the client system.

Abstract: A method of generating a poet personality including reading poems, each of the poems containing text, generating analysis models, each of the analysis models representing one of poems and storing the analysis models in a personality data structure. The personality data structure further includes weights, each of the weights associated with each of the analysis models. The weights include integer values.

Abstract: A computer poetry screen saver including loading an author analysis model, randomly selecting a seed word from the author analysis model, completing a poem following the seed word and displaying the poem on an output device.

Abstract: A computer program product and method for installing downloaded software on a client system over a network is described. The product and method include generating an access key by receiving an installation key produced using a random number generated from a seed that is the value of a client specific physical feature of the machine existing when a software installation program was run on the client system.

Abstract: A computer generated poetry screen saver includes loading an author analysis model, and randomly selecting a seed word from the author analysis model. A poem is completed following the seed word using the author analysis model and the poem is displayed on an output device. The screen saver allows a user to select an interface that includes the screen saver interface option including basic screen saver options.

Abstract: A method of analyzing an author's work, including reading a text file, generating an analysis model from the text file and storing the analysis model. The text file may be a poem, the poem containing ASCII text. The analysis model is a linked data structure. The linked data structure includes n-gram data structures, the n-gram structures including combinations of 1-gram data structures, bigram data structures, trigram data structures and quadrigram data structures.

Abstract: A method of generating visual art includes providing a fractal object, which includes an initiator element, a set of generator elements and a set of parameters. The set of parameters are used to render a representation of the fractal object. The generator elements follow a rule. The method also includes replacing the initiator element with the set of generator elements by scaling and orientating the set of generator elements based on the initiator element. The method further includes replacing the generator element with the set of generator elements so that the set of generator elements replacing a generator element is oriented and scaled based on the generator element being replaced. The method includes iteratively replacing generator elements with the set of generator elements.

Abstract: A method of providing a graphical user interface (GUI) in a poetry generation system including displaying a work space, receiving a user input to the word space and linking the user input to a plurality of poet assistant windows. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 wherein The work space may be derived from executing a word processing program. The user input may be a word. The poet assistant's windows may include a combination of a next word window, a finish line window, a finish poem window, a rhyme word window and an alliterative window. Each of the poet's assistant windows may include a poet personality.
