1. Computerpoesie: Studien zur Modifikation poetischer Texte durch den Computer

   The conception and realisation of computerised poetry is based on a computer’s inherent qualities and characteristics. Resulting works are hybrid, multimedia and interactive texts comprising typeface, image and sound; they can neither be printed on paper nor viewed without a computer, or to be more precise, an electronic apparatus (holography, monitor, virtual reality). This study explores the historical origins of electronic poetry and, on the basis of the switch from paper to computer, analyses the significance these fundamental shifts have had on the aesthetic interaction of language and text: Typeface starts to move and in this way challenges the poetic production and our perception.

2. Music

   Williams used an IBM 1070 to identify the 101 most common words from Dante’s Divine Comedy, and used them to create a series of computer poems. Williams borrows a condensed verbal framework from Dante, which is mechanically represented into lines that diminish, in relation to the number of times they appear in Divine Comedy, until a single word remains.

3. The IBM Poem

   In "The IBM Poem" (1966) twenty-six words are randomly chosen from a dictionary and each is associated in a list with a letter of the alphabet to form lines; the letters of words in one line are then permuted to make subsequent lines.

5. Poetic Machinations

   The article first recalls the historical evolution of computer poetry which, from Théo Lutz (1959) to alire (1989), evolves from experimentation to cultural entity. The emphasis is placed on the French evolution through its main expressions, which are the A.L.A.M.O., the first telematic review Art-Access the Les Immatériaux exhibition and the birth of L.A.I.R.E., a difference of viewpoints, of approaches and of the space given by the authors to computer poetry concerning the arts, the machine and the text. This progressive differentiation of focus questions approaches which were thought to be unchanging, regarding the notions of text, reader and author. This questioning started with the A.L.A.M.O. and progressed with L.A.I.R.E. Its description and the expression of the answers it proposes requires a new critical approach to the notion of text, more anchored in a communication pattern which has been developing since 1993 and whose present state is summed up in the third part. The article ends by demonstrating that the smooth running of alire is the full expression of what these new answers imply.

   States that new media poetry integrates characteristics of the new media in the theoretical basis of its poetics.

7. Computer Poetry

   Silvestre Pestana programmed in BASIC, first for a Sinclair ZX-81 and ZX-82, and then, already with chromatic lighting, for a Sinclair ZX Spectrum, three poems respectively dedicated to Henri Chopin, E. M. de Melo e Castro and Julian Beck, which resulted in the Computer Poetry (1981-83) series. Pestana, a visual artist, writer and performer – who had returned from the exile in Sweden after Portugal’s Carnation Revolution of April 25, 1974 – brought diverse influences put forward with photography, video, performance, and computer media. From his creative production, it should be emphasized the iconic conceptual piece Povo Novo [New People] (1975), which was remediated by the author himself in the referred series of kinetic visual poems, or “infopoems” (Melo e Castro 1988: 57).

8. Primórdios da poesia em computador – anos 60, 70 e 80 do século XX

   A história literária, considerando em particular a produção poética, regista algumas experiências cuja intenção é a de interferir na noção ocidental de livro, com o intuito de promover uma certa libertação dos constrangimentos tradicionalmente impostos pela materialidade da escrita. Neste contexto, o recurso a processos criativos alicerçados em estratégias aleatórias, combinatórias ou permutacionais tem-se revelado uma das formas de perseguir esse objectivo.
