TITLE
Automatical composition of poems and songs

ABSTRACT
Constraints are a major factor shaping the conceptual space of many areas of creativity. We propose to use constraint programming techniques and off-the-shelf constraint solvers in the creative task of poetry writing.

We also address the challenging task of automatically composing lyrical songs with matching musical and lyrical
features, and we present the first prototype, M.U. Sicus-Apparatus, to accomplish the task.
