1. P.o.E.M.M.

   A compilation of broken poems, P.o.E.M.M. Poems for Excitable [Mobile] Media is designed explicitly for mobile media. The poems cannot be read without touching the screen, an experience that creates excitable stimulation. The letters and words of the poems float in the background, waiting for the user to snatch them up with their fingers. One line at a time, the user can grab the words and align them on the screen. The lines can be arranged in any order, and so the user must piece together both their meaning and the structure. Lewis and Nadeau built the interface filled by these works and poets: “What They Speak When They Speak to Me” by Jason E. Lewis, “Character” by Jim Andrews, “Let Me Tell You What Happened This Week” by David Jhave Johnston, “Muddy Mouth” by JR Carpenter, “The Color of Your Hair Is Dangerous” by Aya Karpinska. Annotated by Greg Philbrook.

2. MUPS

   MUPS (MashUPs) is an online sonic mashup engine
   built in 2012 in Flash (sorry iOS users) by Jhave
   for the sheer pleasure of simultaneity.

   MUPS has been seeded with the following content:

   PennSound MUPS
   1260 audio poems
   from the PennSound archives.

   These audio files are used with permission.
   I gratefully acknowledge the generosity of Charles Bernstein
   and the encouragement of Christopher Funkhouser.

   How does it work: MUPS can play multiple audio files (up to 32 streams) simultaneously. It can also WEAVE those files: by playing short segments of each voice until it encounters silence, then playing the next voice. MUPS offers users control over how the WEAVE occurs.

   Issues: after extended use, MUPS can get confused.
   Refresh your browser. Enjoy.
