How to Construct the Genre of Digital Poetry: A User Manual
Friedrich W. Block looks at the systematic and historical conditions of the emergence of a genre like “digital poetry.” He argues that it has been necessary to communicate and spread schemes of invariance and identification to tie to- gether a high variety of artistic practice. For this purpose, concepts and names of genres have been connected with different forms of institutionalization.

In conclusion, his considerations lead to an abstract reflection of a more general concept of “poetry.”
