Cut 'n' Mix

Cut n Mix Word Machine is a word manipulation application with advanced randomization capabilities. Cut n Mix users include authors, poets, rock musicians and almost anybody who is looking for some means to stimulate creativity or just have some fun with words. Cut n Mix is a tool for generating creative ideas through the juxtaposition of unrelated words or phrases. At the core of the Cut n Mix application is a process known as "cut-up": Invented by Dada poet Tristan Tzara and popularized by writer William S. Burroughs, the traditional cut-up method usually involves scissors: you take books, magazines or typed pages and snip out individual words, phrases or sentence fragments and reassemble them either randomly or according to some predefined pattern. Cut n Mix extends the cut-up process using an audio four-track recorder analogy where different text streams are blended together according to adjustable settings. Cut n Mix also offers advanced word processing effects including a word morpher which skews the meaning of text by replacing each word with a randomly selected synonym, a fridge magnet poetry simulator and a poetry generator which assembles blocks of text into poetic stanzas which rhyme.
