Guy Debord noted that Surrealist techniques had been co-opted by the advertising business: automatic writing became unedited “brainstorming.”  Similarly, early experiments in computer-generated poetry led to the composition of spam.

Hey, look everybody!  I’m invisible!

Two plus two doesn’t equal four, you asshole!  One plus three equals four!

Plump the pillow,
Fluff the blanket.
My head’s dizzy:
Time to bank it.
