Toward an Ontology of the Field of Digital Poetry
author-submitted abstract:
This essay proposes a model of an ontology based on the ontological model by Spinoza commented by Deleuze. It aims at establishing properties of a tool for indexing documents related to the field of digital poetry. It is build in three stages.
In a first stage, we build a normalised graphical representation of the Spinoza’s model. We show that this philosophical model can easily be schematised in a combination between a relation/entity model and an set representation with internal graphical lows. These graphics are normalised because each part of them has a unique and constant significant. So, such graphics can be used to make graphical treatment of information in relationship with databases.

E-poetry: the Palpable Side of Signs
In his famous essay entitles “Linguistics and Poetics” (1958) Roman Jakobson asserted that the “[poetic function] stresses the palpable side of signs”. Paul Valéry states that “a poem […] should create the illusion of an indissoluble compound of sound and sense”.
We traditionally call poetry an artistic experience related to the word both in oral and written form, whose composition unity is the verse line (alexandrine verse, free verse, etc.). The oral medium should be normally richer. The written poetry, in fact, translated into the page only the segmental part of a text, but it is not able to show the over-segmental part as the tone, modulation, etc. However, we can say that this discrepancy has been cancelled: for instance, emphasis, oral procedure concerning duration, has its graphic form highlighted.

POIESIS, p0es1s, p0es1e – e adiante: Uma retroperspectiva
Being fascinated by the dynamics and the potential which medial technologies offer for the artistic investigation of materiality and the individual and social use of language, the poetological concept of the show formulated a key idea which is still reflected in the subtitle of the recent “poiesis”-exhibition: the difference between program and pixel, or between a perception proposition and the ‘underlying’ code. In his foreword to the small catalogue from 1992, André Vallias describes this crucial distinction from the code perspective: “Data dissolve the borders between bodies, surfaces, sounds, words, dots, tones, letters and numbers”.1 Accordingly, the show’s title “p0es1e” exemplifies the difference by intertwining the sign systems of perceivable writing and the digital code normally used to program in an ‘unobservable’ way what can be perceived. Observing the unobservable in language, is surely one of the core characteristics of experimental poetry. The conceptual fusion of different dimensions and uses of languages is still a prominent procedure of poetic reflexivity. Dick Higgins had formulated his concept of poetic intermedia along these lines, in 1965.

Para uma razao da poiesis: 4 notas/interfaces
Contrary to Walter Pater’s celebrated maxim that “All art constantly aspires towards the condition of music”, it is claimed here that the real aspiration is towards poetry, above all if we consider it as synonymous to poiesis, to creation in the broad and also extensive sense. Derived from the Greek term meaning ‘to make’ it can be applied to the whole invention of language (construction of forms) and to the reading of things (the cosmo-view of the world, of reality), it is more encompassing and applicable to the plural universe of records and the support of art and poetry. Furthermore, it would be oriented more towards poetry in the sense of reading not alienated from things, as Roland Barthes would say; in short, for a language other than the reified, repressed. This perspective is far from the particularly abstract ambition (almost of another world) that shows off music and sound, and approximates to the solidity and distance of poetry, because in essence it always dissolves between sound and feeling, between the concretion of language and its more distant and abstract materialization. Between the known feeling and that which is created.

<POEMA> entre pixel e programa </>
A maior parte dos textos que permeiam a vida do homem contemporâneo passa quase que invariavelmente desapercebida ao seu olhar. São textos que se destinam à leitura por parte de máquinas. Textos que registram informação: do minúsculo “elemento de imagem” , que compõe os mosaicos que brilham na tela de monitores e painéis eletrônicos, ao conjunto
complexo de instruções e procedimentos que nos permitem gerar e manipular informação . Esta exposição se pergunta: o que faz o poeta (“aquele-que-faz”, do grego POIEIN = fazer, produzir) num contexto que torna cada vez mais porosas as fronteiras que separam letras de números, imagens de sons, etceteras de etceteras?Luciana Gattass - 12.11.2012 - 14:00
