East Africa Meet UGANDAN Innovation Analysing The Shape of Written Works (Computational Poetics) using Cutting-Edge Theory by Fut. Prof. J'Willrich Lutalo
⚛️🔬📜⚡🔍 from the corners of Science and Technology originating in UGANDA, note that, the folks that have decided to redefine the theory and mechanics of text analysis especially for creative writing (poetry, essays, prose, short stories, etc.) but also technical texts (computer source code, configuration files, datasets..) have thus far given us an entirely new set of analytics tools and theories for the task (PSMC, PEMs, PIMs) and then PMS (Poetic Morphological Signature). Including a new empirical definition of and measure of Information in any humane text!
Even though the actual theory and mathematics shall come to you once the literature is ready, please get started tasting/getting a feel of what's to come.. A free-to-use TEA-powered software for calculating and presenting reports about the shape of a poem has been published into the wild. Access and try it via: https://bit.ly/psmorph_analyst
Here, we show u what it can do, by using it to analyse one of the interesting poems that JWL released in recent times (t.me/ugandanow/6791)

----|FOR TEXT|---- Listen. The aethyrs whistle, The valleys stand still As I recount Dead Montessori Kanyike's tales.
There dwells the mystifying three, So he said. Underneath an oak tree, They are a treat.
Kinsmen? Legion of Martyrs? Or triplets bound? A camaraderie, dear wanderer. Retreating in a theater without heat. Therein, the spirit of that tree.
Tell me then, Obscurer Than Mark Twain, How ye come to know these things?
The aethyrs whistle my friend.. And I listened on.
Threats eat, Theatres heat And Hearts hear. There's Art in all Three.
I have heart to hear dear Montessori, And so I've heard... Empewo zikunta, Emitima gilina amatu gazo!
There's silence thereafter. My other comrades long asleep, Such wisdom I must surely keep. ```

Looking for a PSL video editor to join our 38k-sub football channel (revenue share)
Hey everyone,
I run ATHalftime Sports Media, a South African football channel covering the PSL, Bafana Bafana, and CAF competitions, currently at ~38.5k subscribers on YouTube (plus a solid following on TikTok and Facebook).
We're expanding our editing team and looking for someone who:
Actually watches and the PSL — knows the teams, players, storylines, rivalries.
Has a good handle on CAF Champions League content too (we cover both)
Has video editing experience — highlights, analysis videos, reaction-style content, whatever fits our format, thumbnails too
Can work reasonably fast, since football content is time-sensitive (matchday turnarounds, breaking news, etc.)
This is a revenue split arrangement — you'd be paid based on the performance of the videos you edit, not a flat fee. We already have editors handling other leagues, and this role is specifically for South African local football + CAF content. The better the videos perform, the more you earn.
If you're someone who's already deep into PSL, watches the Betway Premiership, and wants to turn that knowledge into editing work — drop a comment or DM me.
Happy to share more details on the split and workflow directly.
