1. 35ste Nacht van de Poëzie

   et grootste poëziefeest van het jaar kent in 2017 zijn 35ste (!) editie, als vanouds in de Grote Zaal van TivoliVredenburg. De 19 beste Nederlandstalige dichters, zowel de veteranen als de nieuwe sterren aan het poëtisch firmament, verzorgen deze nachtelijke poëzie-estafette. En uiteraard nemen muzikale en theatrale entr’actes het stokje enkele malen van ze over. Het evenement begint om 20.00 uur en eindigt meestal tegen 3.00 uur in de ochtend. In de gangen rond de Grote Zaal vindt gelijktijdig ook een boekenmarkt en een presentatie van kleine uitgevers, literaire tijdschriften en organisaties plaats.

3. Love and Loss in Robert Kendall's "A Life Set for Two"

   The sixth chapter in Rebooting Electronic Literature: Documenting Pre-Web Born Digital Media (2018) about Robert Kendall's narrative poem, A Life Set for Two, contains Dene Grigar's essay, entitled "Love and Loss in Robert Kendall's A Life Set for Two.

   The essay is descriptive and takes the reader through the story, like a "walkthrough". Throughout the text there is very detailed descriptions of how the different scenes look and what's happening in the scene, making it possible for the reader to imagine the setting the story takes place in. It also allows for more immersion. As the users of A Life Set For Two can interact with the work by clicking through different options along the story, Dene Grigar also explains what happens when clicking these as she progress through the story. Along with this the essay also provides general information about the production of the work, the essay also analyzes the poem from the perspective of the themes of love and loss.

4. The Posthuman Poetics of Instagram Poetry

   Instagram poetry, a type of digital poetry is, as the name implies, poetry that is produced for distribution through the social media channel Instagram and most usually incorporates creative typography with bite size verses. 

   Instagram poetry can demonstrate the cultural impact of a posthuman cyborgian fluidity of borders and forms in that we essentially find ourselves left with anthropophagic texts - cannibalistic texts that remix, reuse and re-appropriate content. Digital texts can no longer be regarded as singular standalone objects rather they are constantly changing assemblages in which inequalities and inefficiencies in their operations drive them towards breakdown, disruption, innovation and change

5. PhoneMe: A mobile phone-native genre of poetry for the social media age

   This presentation regards to development of a place-based, geotagged, online mapping of an innovative, mobile phone-native, spoken word genre of poetry. The website www.phonemeproject.com hosts poems that are left as messages by calling 1-604-PHONEME (746-6363) and leaving your name, location of the call or topical location of the poem, title of the poem, and then recording a poem of up to four minutes in length. The poem is pinned on an interactive map that features a google street view image of the location, the MP3 audio file, and in some cases the text of the poem. Longer poems can serialized. The intent of this project is to give voice to community-based writing about real places and spaces within the community. As such, it began with a year of workshops conducted in the downtown east side of Vancouver, one of the poorest neighbourhoods in North America, in order that poets in the community to speak back to media representations of their neighbourhood. We have moved on to working with schools, providing workshops for hundreds of students in British Columbia, Canada.

6. Probing the gaps between datasets and interfaces in electronic literature

   The contrast between the conceptual and material realities of data harvesting and of digital interfaces is a captivating subject matter I will tap into to make visible the physicality of the internet and to subvert destructive dominant, colonial narratives with respect to the natural environment and climate. 

   This intervention will use poetry and photography/video as electronic literature to shed light on the conceptual language used online (e.g., on social media, corporate websites, online magazines, etc.) to discuss datasets in relationship to digital interfaces. Furthermore, it will address an identifiable gap within this language, which can be viewed in the production of massive amounts of electronic waste.

7. A Project Gutenberg Poetry Corpus

   In this paper, I present the Gutenberg Poetry Corpus: a corpus of over three million lines of poetry (in annotated JSON format) automatically curated from Project Gutenberg. Project Gutenberg, a collection of machine-readable texts in the public domain, was originally instigated in the early 1970s with a hand-typed copy of the US Declaration of Independence. More recently driven by the volunteer efforts of a decentralized group of proofreaders, Project Gutenberg now consists of more than 54,000 texts, mostly English- language literature from the 18th and 19th centuries. Researchers in the humanities and in computational linguistics have made use of Project Gutenberg for decades, and more recently its use in data-driven computational creativity has grown. I relay the methodology used to automatically filter and identify lines of poetry from the larger Gutenberg corpus, discuss the potential of this corpus for research and creative work, and then present a series of my own experiments that use this corpus as their primary source material.

8. Born Digital

   “E-poetry relies on code for its creation, preservation, and display: there is no way to experience a work of e-literature unless a computer is running it—reading it and perhaps also generating it.” Stephanie Strickland outlines 11 rules of electronic poetry.

9. Reading Project: A Collaborative Analysis of William Poundstone’s Project for Tachistoscope

   Electronic literature is a rapidly growing area of creative production and scholarly interest. It is inherently multimedial and multimodal, and thus demands multiple critical methods of interpretation. Reading Project: A Collaborative Analysis of William Poundstone’s Project for Tachistoscope {Bottomless Pit} is a collaboration between three scholars combining different interpretive methods of digital literature and poetics in order to think through how critical reading is changing—and, indeed, must change—to keep up with the emergence of digital poetics and practices. It weaves together radically different methodological approaches—close reading of onscreen textual and visual aesthetics, Critical Code Studies, and cultural analytics (big data)—into a collaborative interpretation of a single work of digital literature.

10. The Convergence between Print and Digital Literature in Blackout Poetry

    The Convergence between Print and Digital Literature in Blackout Poetry study the phenomenon of the “blackout poetry” both in the digital and the physical world. According to Ralph Heibutzki, on Demand Media, “Blackout Poetry focuses on reordering words to create a different meaning. Also known as the newspaper blackout poetry, in it, the author uses a permanent marker to cross out or delete words or images that he sees as unnecessary or irrelevant to the effect he is trying to create. The central idea is to design a new text from the words and images published previously, but finally, the reader is free to interpret as he wants.”
