For the last event of the Fall 2014 Electronic Literature Reading Series, the Bergen Electronic Literature Research Group at the University of Bergen and the Bergen Public Library present

Ink After Print by Søren Pold

Tuesday, December 2, 2014, 6-8 pm, Bergen Public Library, Auditorium

Ass. Prof. Søren Pold from the Aarhus University will present Ink After Print, an interactive, participatory, digital literary installation designed to make people engage with, and reflect on, the interactive qualities of digital literature in public settings such as libraries. Through their engagement with Ink, people can -- individually or collaboratively -- produce poems by interacting with three books embedded with a custom-made sensor system. People can produce new poems from sentences, written by Danish author Peter-Clement Woetmann in a playful way and take their poems with them on printed receipts. Ink has been exhibited at more than dozen libraries all over Denmark, and at numerous conferences and seminars.

The installation will be exhibited at the Bergen Public Library from November 24th, 2014.
