1. A Short History of Electronic Poetry

   “Una Piccola Storia della Poesia Elettronica” presents a brief history of digital poetry, from the perspective of the Electronic Poetry Center (EPC), Buffalo, and the international E-Poetry Festivals of digital literature, art, and performance (E-Poetry). The paper engages the discipline from various perspectives, considering its relation to historic contextualizing movements and institutional mechanisms. Typifying the E-Poetry festivals, it is argued, are its exuberant origins: (1) the U.S. small press movements of the later twentieth century; (2) the activities and philosophies of the Electronic Poetry Center; (3) its self-definition as more broadly-conceived than that of hypertext; (4) the pre-existing literary ground of Language Poetry practices; (5) the vibrancy of the as-then-constituted Poetics Program at Buffalo, and; (6) a "symposium of the whole", the continued emerging importance of enthnopoetic localizations to an eventual realization of contemporary poetics.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. Authoring Software

   A resource for teachers and students of new media writing, who are exploring what authoring tools to use, for new media writers and poets, who are interested in how their colleagues approach their work, and for readers, who want to understand how new media writers and poets create their work, the Authoring Software project is an ongoing collection of statements about authoring tools and software. It also looks at the relationship between interface and content in new media writing and at how the innovative use of authoring tools and the creation of new authoring tools have expanded digital writing/hypertext writing/net narrative practice.

7. Interpoetry: a game of words, images and sounds as a poetic sign in digital media

   This paper treats about the hypertextuality and interactivity of Philadelpho Menezes and Wilton Azevedo’s cd-rom Interpoesia (Interpoetry). By describing the procedures of poetic construction, it is analyzed the poetic sign as a game of words, images and sounds in digital environment. The prefix inter plays an important role in the cd-rom project not only as a new term for digital poetry, but also as a cultural and technological product that intends to replace the book.

8. Trajectory of Electronic Poetry in Brazil: A Short History

   This paper aims at presenting some examples of a historical trajectory of Electronic Poetry in Brazil in basic three focuses: the milieu in which e-poetry had been developed, the first experiences in 70s and 80s, and the increased development since 1995, when artistic and poetry experiments started being made in WWW.

9. 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.
