  1. 1_100

    A interface do poema digital recorre à cor azul do tema standard da última distribuição do sistema operativo Windows 10 (foi usada ferramenta de color picker), procurando construir um caminho poético para a profanação e détournement. Este artefacto poético digital lida com a expectativa do utilizador, por meio da latência, desespero e frustração. Os utilizadores esperam que o poema carregue e, no fim, tudo o que lhes é devolvido é uma mensagem de erro que os informa de que é necessário fazer refresh à página, reiniciando todo o processo de carregamento do poema. Toda a gente sabe que não há nada mais frustrante do que a latência de uma barra de carregamento numa época sem tempo (sendo que nos encontramos constantemente com pressa, partilhando dum sentimento de urgência que nos é imposto). Ainda para mais se o processo de carregamento nunca acaba de todo, reivindicando um loop eterno que insiste numa iterativa formatação da memória. É o tempo na era digital um diferente tipo de tempo?

  2. News Wheel

    News Wheel, 2016 is an iOS app that explores the poetics of ever changing news headlines. It begins as a static disk divided into nine sections each representing a different news source. Tapping anywhere on the screen causes the wheel to spin. Another tap stops the wheel and suddenly a headline in one of nine pre-selected colors appears on the screen. This playful interface invites users to start and stop the wheel eventually filling the screen with a collage of current headlines. Individual words can be deleted and repositioned so users can create their own poems from this content. In addition, dragging one's finger across the screen creates an animated chain of fragmented and poetic text derived from today's headline news. News Wheel is a creative and poetic way to view, juxtapose and interpret world events. (Source: http://www.jodyzellen.com/newswheeltalk/)

  3. All The Delicate Duplicates

    John, a single father and computer engineer, inherits a collection of arcane objects from Mo, his mysterious Aunt. Over time, the engineer and his daughter Charlotte begin to realise that the objects have unusual physical properties – and that the more they are exposed to them, the more their realities and memories appear to change.

    “All the Delicate Duplicates traverses time and alt-realities via a layered character driven narrative world.” – Dr Andrew Burrell

    "I could lose myself in this for hours. This feels so new, unlike anything I’ve ever seen." – Beta Tester at the 2016 Game City Festival.

    “Played one of the most cerebral walking sims I've experienced yet.” – Michael Nam

  4. Loss Sets

    Artist’s Statement:
    “Loss Sets” translates poems co-written by Jordan Scott and Aaron Tucker into sculptures printed by 3D printers.
    If language is the material from which poetry is built, what becomes of poetry when it sheds language for pure form? What, if anything, is reconciled?
    What is reimagined? What is lost? Within this nexus of translation and sculptural poetics, the project thus aims to respond to the multiples of contemporary loss (physical, environmental, artistic, personal).
    The poetic form allows Scott and Tucker to explore the dirge, lament and elegy as means to grapple with loss and, ultimately, the failure of language to adequately represent trauma.
    The poems, written in collaboration, therefore bring two consciousnesses to the task of what can only be the failed task of reclamation.
    It is hoped that when joined with the algorithm and, finally, the 3D object itself, Scott and Tucker’s poetics of loss will take on a ‘translated’ physical form to be handled, manipulated, stolen or destroyed.

  5. MATTERS, Electromagnetic poems

    When materials that support texts change, the content have to change. Matters is a physical reflection on how the materiality could affect the text. From ceramic tiles to displays, each new supporting material has opened new possibilities for writing. The support does more than sustain the text, it limits and potentiates it at the same time. The rules of the text are established thanks to these materials, which are implemented as a medium for the text. The physical, the chemical, the sociology, and the politics of these mediums definitively influence the literary use of the ideas. The change in supporting materials allow us to tap into new possibilities that poetry has the pleasure of exploring and amplifying. Similarly, the poetic endeavour is obligated to question the physical, chemical, social, and political limitations of either medium as a support for the text. The expressive reflection allows the revision of rules established by the use of either format and, perhaps, generates new uses of a medium; or in an extreme case, generates a new medium for the diffusion of the text.

  6. The Silent Numbers

    The Silent Numbers combines audio collage with original text appropriated from an e-mail group devoted to recording and transcribing numbers stations. Numbers stations are shortwave radio broadcasts of human and machine-read numbers and letters probably used in espionage to communicate with field agents.

  7. Radikal Karaoke

    Radical Karaoke consiste en un dispositivo online cuya finalidad es permitir que cualquier usuario pueda enunciar discursos políticos.
    La política, a nivel mundial, se dedica hoy casi exclusivamente a la retórica. Sus discursos se estructuran en base a fórmulas enfáticas y demagógicas, sin contenidos específicos. Su función principal parece ser la de crear clichés lingüísticos cuya única meta, al igual que los virus, es repetirse a sí mismos. El obligado uso del teleprompter en los discursos políticos remite, además, al fenómeno del ventrilocuismo y el karaoke.

  8. ELC3 Bot

    This bot is a tool designed to help readers explore the Electronic Literature Collection, Volume 3. Created with Cheap Bots, Done Quick!, a free bot hosting service powered by Tracery, an intuitive JavaScript library developed by Kate Compton, PhD. The bot currently tweets a suggested work from the ELC3 every 3 hours, linking to the work and adding the #ELC3 hashtag. Its Twitter account also compiles two lists of bots: a complete list of its 11 bots and one without Real Human Praise, which posts too frequently to allow readers to appreciate the other bots. Future development of this bot will include random suggestions based on ELC3 metadata, such as keywords, language, location, year, and we may even add some interactivity so it can respond to queries. In the meantime, follow this bot to receive suggestions of works to explore in the ELC3.

  9. Automation | 自動化

    Inspired by the endlessly repeated automated announcements in Tokyo train and subway stations, this is a generative poem called "自動化" in its Japanese version, and "Automation" in English.

    It uses the syntax of the familiar announcement "1番線ドアが閉まります。ご注意ください。" ("The doors on platform 1 are closing. Please be careful"). Every 8 seconds, a script generates a new line by randomly selecting the platform number, subject, verb, and exhortation from a preset list. It displays the result on the screen and then generates a new line. Browsers capable of speech synthesis will also read the text aloud in either English or Japanese.

  10. Hey Gorgeous

    "Hey Gorgeous" by Darius Kazemi is one, in a great number of remixes of the generative work "Taroko Gorge" by Scott Monfort. How Darius Kazemi remixes Monfort's work, is by changing the textstrings in the code, thereby changing the generated text which moves up the screen. "Hey Gorgeous" pictures a scene in a nightclub, with focus on men and boys, in relation with women, drugs, dancing etc.
