Virtual Muse: Experiments in Computer Poetry
In this engaging, accessible memoir, Charles Hartman shows how computer programming has helped him probe poetry's aesthetic possibilities. He discusses the nature of poetry itself and his experiences with primitive computer-generated poetry programs and -- illustrated with sample computer-produced verses -- traces the development of more advanced hardware and software.
The central question about this cyber-partnership, Hartman says, "isn't exactly whether a poet or a computer writes the poem, but what kinds of collaboration might be interesting." He examines the effects of randomness, arbitrariness, and contingency on poetic composition, concluding that "the tidy dance among poet and text and reader creates a game of hesitation. In this game, a properly programmed computer has a chance to slip in some interesting moves." (source: book description)

Novissima verba: huellas digitales / electrónicas / cibernéticas en la poesía latinoamericana
Luis Correa-Díaz se pregunta en esta serie de ensayos si la literatura electrónica está o no hoy por alcanzar esa velocidad de escape de la fuerza gravitacional de la literatura tradicional. ¿Cómo se negocia en esta época el valor literario, el estatus de lo escrito, la desaparición o permanencia del libro en esta etapa de transición y adaptación literaria?
Pareciera haber en español una escasez de discursos críticos e iniciativas de estudio que den cuenta de estas significativas mutaciones culturales. De allí la especial importancia de este libro que se presenta de referencia obligada, especialmente para los estudios de obras iberoamericanas, en los que se centra esta publicación.(Source: Belén Gache, Publisher's website)
