Someone stop me before I markov again

Since I had already written the necessary code for my last mapping project, here's the Thesis Title Generator. I scraped the ITP thesis pages for titles, dumped them all into a text file, and trained my Markov algorithm on them. The program generates strings that very much resemble, but are not (or at least, rarely) identical to, thesis titles from years past. Some recent favorites:

  • massive Narrative, and their interactive Shoes
  • Be My Father
  • The Spectacular Interactive Network City
