A paper on a subject in the field where literature, linguistics and computer science overlap.

There is a special relationship between poetry and music, especially songs. After all, a song is nothing but a poem suitable for singing. Those interested in the use of the computer in the creation of poems may therefore also be interested in such a use in the creation of music. They are advised to read the TRINPsite article on symmetrical music, which deals with examples of the computer-aided symmetrization of songs in particular.
