Beyond Automynorcagrams

Authors

Abstract

While doing research for an unrelated article, I stumbled upon Howard W. Bergerson's 1975 article in Word Ways, "Automynorcagrams". This is a logological form in which the nth word of the text must begin with the nth character in the text. According to Bergerson, the idea behind the automynorcagram is to create a "self-propelling and partially self-replicating logological entity".
