FWD from Alan McGowen <amcgowen@hposl02.cup.hp.com>:
Australian computer scientist Andrew Bulhak has produced a wonderful bit
of programming called the Postmodern Generator. Each time you visit it
at http://www.cs.monash.edu.au/cgi-bin/postmodern, it randomly generates
for you a brand new, syntatically correct, postmodernist paper, complete
with citations and ready to be submitted to the editors of Social Text,
or posted on any deserving list.
Below are a few paragraphs from the paper it just made for me.

Dialectic desublimation and expressionism
Ludwig Mellen
Department of Literature, Cambridge University
1. Realities of dialectic
"Culture is responsible for hierarchy," says Marx. Dietrich[1] implies that
we have to choose between expressionism and dialectic desublimation.
Therefore, any number of theories concerning dialectic desublimation exist.
Derrida promotes the use of dialectic libertarianism to read sexual
identity. The main theme of the works of Lee is the dialectic, and
eventually the rubicon, of conceptual sexuality.
2. Lee and the capitalist paradigm of discourse
The primary theme of Prinn's[2] critique of expressionism is the praxis, and
hence the dialectic, of subcultural society. In a sense, Mensonge's analysis
of presemioticist dialectic theory holds that narrative is created by the
masses, given that Bataille's essay on dialectic desublimation is valid.
and so on ... <G>
