Spam Mail Responsible for New Literary Craze

Spam mail. Frustrierend, time-wasting, completely useless. Right? Not if you are a member of a fast-growing new literary movement. Proponents of this new art form called their works "spam-lit ',' spam poetry," or simply "spoetry ', and comb their junk mail folder for the delicacy of text, to literature.

If you ever received spam mails (which you probably have - some 90 billion bulk messages sent every day), you have probably noticed the unusual and often poetic paragraphs of text at the end of stories. You read something like this:

Spammers use a bot to randomly generate short paragraphs, their material from the separate press (an algorithm for the creation of text from other text), or the digital archive Web Project Gutenberg. Other feed passages from old Bibles through a program in the hope that the archaic language to slip through the spam filters.

The literary movement owes much to the willingness of creative souls to see art in the most bizarre of places, or maybe one quaint desire to turn even the banality frustrating to something worth reading. It's definitely worth a look.
