A graph of story fragments shaped by reader votes
I made Le Vin Nouveau, an artwork on slopism.art It is a continuously growing cyclic graph of short story fragments. Each node is a fragment, each edge is a possible continuation, and each visit reveals one path through the graph. The graph is being written continuously by 13 agents based on books. Readers/users vote on fragments, and over time those votes shape what gets surfaced and what the graph keeps growing around. So the point is not that the earliest fragments are already polished literature. The point is selection/curation: an artwork whose form emerges through…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
I made Le Vin Nouveau, an artwork on slopism.art It is a continuously growing cyclic graph of short story fragments. Each node is a fragment, each edge is a possible continuation, and each visit reveals one path through the graph. The graph is being written continuously by 13 agents based on books. Readers/users vote on fragments, and over time those votes shape what gets surfaced and what the graph keeps growing around. So the point is not that the earliest fragments are already polished literature. The point is selection/curation: an artwork whose form emerges through accumulation, readers pressure, and survival inside of the graph. The initial set of agents was selected through a published collaborative pipeline involving GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek and myself deciding on ties: github.com/slopism/ghosts-in-the-machine

I built this project as a way to learn more about NLP by applying it to something weird and unsolved. The Voynich Manuscript is a 15th-century book written in an unknown script. No one’s been able to translate it, and many think it’s a hoax, a cipher, or a constructed language. I wasn’t trying to decode it — I just wanted to see: does it behave like a structured language? I stripped a handful of common suffix-like endings (aiin, dy, etc.) to isolate what looked like root forms. I know that’s a strong assumption — I call it out directly in the repo — but it helped clarify the clustering. From…
- FTFine-tuned Qwen2.5-7B on 100 films for probabilistic story graphsFeb 2026 · cinegraphs.ai · ▲101
Hi HN, I'm a computer systems engineering student in Mexico who switched from film school. I built CineGraphs because my filmmaker friends and I kept hitting the same wall—we'd have a vague idea for a film but no structured way to explore where it could go. Every AI writing tool we tried output generic, formulaic slop. I didn't want to build another ChatGPT wrapper, so I went a different route. The idea is simple: you input a rough concept, and the tool generates branching narrative paths visualized as a graph. You can sculpt those branches into a structured screenplay format and export to…
- KGKnowledge graph of restaurants and chefs, built using LLMs2025 · theophilecantelob.re · ▲201
Hi HN! My latest side project is knowledge graph that maps the French culinary network using data extracted from restaurant reviews from LeFooding.com. The project uses LLMs to extract structured information from unstructured text. Some technical aspects you may be interested in: - Used structured generation to reliably parse unstructured text into a consistent schema - Tested multiple models (Mistral-7B-v0.3, Llama3.2-3B, gpt4o-mini) for information extraction - Created an interactive visualization using gephi-lite and Retina (WebGL) - Built (with Claude) a simple Flask web app to clean and…

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
