  1. Google Earth: A Poem for Voice and Internet

    This highly professional video documents a live performance of this poem, which uses primarily three materials: speeches by presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, and Google Earth. These works are brought together in a political and economic mashup that incorporates texts read aloud by Portela in English and translated to Spanish and Portuguese, voice recordings of the speeches, and a large projected video of Google Earth navigating to parts of the world that resonate with the poem. Portela intervenes upon these materials in a variety of ways, defamiliarizing them towards the poetic, emphasizing particular words or passages by isolating and repeating them, and placing them in conversation with its other materials through juxtaposition and superposition.

  2. Any Vision

    This work is published as a video documentation of a simultaneously analog and digital poem— an instance of extreme inscription as described by Matthew Kirschenbaum. Written on a semiconductor alloy with “a focus GA ion beam” at font sizes much smaller than a pixel, requiring an electron microscope with magnification “ranges from 400x all the way to 10000x.” The naked eye cannot read this poem unaided, so the video takes us through an edited journey into the poem’s text reminiscent of Prezi, but much cooler in its materiality.

  3. Jakob og Neikob

    Ein rålekker, kvit Ipad 2 låg inne i bursdagspapiret på 38-årsdagen min for litt sidan. Først fleire dagar seinare fekk eg prøve han sjølv, då hadde ungane lasta ned alt frå Fifa 12 til Angry Birds. No er det derimot ein annan applikasjon dei opnar aller oftast: Den nye barnebok-appen Jakob og Nekob er ikkje berre den mest brukte heime hjå oss, han låg òg på toppen av salslistene i haust Jakob seier JA! til alt og Neikob seier NEI! til alt. Slikt vert det trøbbel og krokodillemat av. På lesebrettet kan borna aktivere mange artige effektar. Jakob og Neikob seier orda sine, krokodiller brøler, lampene skrur seg på og av og bilen brummar bortover vegen. Innlesinga skrur du på og av som du vil. Eit lite spel er også med. Samlaget har lykkast særs godt i ta med seg Kari Stai sin genistrek over til dette nye mediet. (source: http://www.nynorskbok.no/2011/12/28/kari-stai-jakob-og-neikob-app/)
