  1. Poemas no meio do caminho

    This  is a combinatory text. There are two versions of the text – two ways of reading it: horizontally and vertically. Both versions allow the reader to save her own textual production, and then to send that production to a weblog. The reader can recombine the text according to the paradigmatic axis of language: the reader selects, the machine morphs/combines. However,  some “obligatory” options resist. By quoting Dante, Poemas no meio do caminho is a metaphor of the reading practice: “poemas no meio do caminho da leitura” (“poems midway upon the journey of reading”). It suggests an ephemeral poetic construction that appears and vanishes in a click. On the one hand these poems destroy the sacredness of the poetic language; on the other they realize the poïesis.This work has won (ex-aequo) the 4t Premi Internacional "Ciutat de Vinaròs" de Literatura Digital.

  2. TLT vs. LL

    The z dimension in this work is important to the conceptual as well
    as the physical operation of the work. Normally, I am not so much
    concerned beyond the xy. My work is first graphic, then literary,
    interactive, and whatever else, so a concern beyond 2D is not high
    priority – until now, and with thanks in part to Rita Raley’s z
    queries.
    The idea of 'versus' (as opposition) demands at the
    least two sides, so, it could be represented visually with just xy.
    Previous 'dual' examples (and these are xy representations):

    So, thinking along that z line... the opposition
    comes not from the left or right, but from back to front ( 1 white from
    9 x white moves to top )
