The Random Generated Text Project

The massive Random Generated Text Project (RGTP) is a labour of pure love and deep philosophical wonder. It requires no expertise or special knowledge, only an openness to a new experience of reading – and to a new experience of meaning itself. It’s like discovering you can breathe under water.

The three volumes of the RGTP, along with copious notes and a massive Archive of material, were left with Michael Caplan at Gilles' passing on Feb. 25, 2026, to be edited and published over time by House of ShAkE. 

Volume 1, Super Vox,was launched on October 3 at Gilles' Celebration of Life.

Volumes 2 and 3, Althea Frutex and Sproutings from the Garden of Kallikantzaros, will follow in time, although a chapbook of "sproutings" from Vol. 3, “We gazed lustily” is now available in a limited run of 25 numbered copies.
