Pomelo

2019

Pomelo was originally created for NaNoGenMo 2019, a part of National Novel Generating Month, the month-long novel-generating event proposed by Darius Kazemi. Pomelo, also known as pomelo.js, generates instruction or event scores, inspired by the work of pioneering fluxus and instruction artist Yoko Ono and her eponymous Grapefruit. Pomelo makes use of Kate Compton's Tracery tool to develop the grammar and text expansion and is programmed with the p5.js javascript library.
