You might be interested in what goes on in the newsgroup called
rec.games.int-fiction or its cousin rec.games.int-fiction. Here is a
readily accessible, provided you are computer literate, mass of work
by some very clever people. These people are actually interacting with
the computer in an approximation to natural language. Nothing
academic.


If you must try technical linguistics I suggest Gazdar, Klein, Pullum
and Sag "Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar". It came out in 1985
and is now considered completely obsolete. But it does not dismiss
things like you are interested in out of hand and it is informed about
computer science. My guess is that if you actually read GPSG you will
change your goals.
