1. Le(s) Mange Texte(s): Creative Cannibalism and Digital Poetry

   Digital poetry always involves mathematical concepts. Fusing together textual elements is an additive process, at very least. Combining files and presenting them via computer screens multiplies possibilities for poetry, and the sum, or sums, of the artistic equation are often worthy of the effort involved. Thus, what we factor into the equation, and how it is factored in, is important. Considering some of the successful works of digital poetry that appeared in the hypermedia journal Alire in France, and in other historical and contemporary works, I see a trait that emerges despite overt aesthetic differences and variant approaches in works produced that I wish to associate with a liberating and useful poetical concept that emerged in South America nearly a century ago.

2. Grande Enquête

   This webpage has been realised for the festival e-poetry 2007 in collaboration with Delphine Riss. During the festival, the participants were invited to vote at the following question:

   Selon vous, les travaux présentés lors du festival e-poetry 2007 (performances, installations, oeuvres) sont ils des oeuvres de poésie numérique?

   According to you, are the works presented at the e-poetry 2007 festival (performances, installations, piece of works) digital art works of poetry?

   Participants were also invited to add precisions in creating their own buttons where their comments were written on them. Other users could then add weights to these buttons by clicking on them.

   The goal of this project was to materialise the difficulty of defining what is digital art poetry and how it is received. While presenting the problem of the definition, the task was too not be closed up in only one: The different requests, potentially infinite, allowed to visualise a state of the reception of the digital poetry, skewed by our intervention.

3. Portuguese Experimental Poetry: Revisited and Recreated

   Portuguese Experimental Poetry, claiming to be an avant-garde movement, arose in Lisbon in the mid 60’s. It got its name from the title of a magazine, Cadernos de Poesia Experimental, which became the herald of the movement. Two issues were published, the first in 1964 and the second in 1966, organized by António Aragão and Herberto Hélder. The first issue was presented as anthological, since it included texts not only of Portuguese poets and musicians but also Brazilian, French, Italian and English artists. It also had a section which included poets of several epochs and tendencies, such as Luis de Camões or Quirinus Kuhlmann, representing respectively the mannerist and baroque aesthetics of European poetry.
