  1. MIDIPoet

    In its current version (which was released in 2002), MIDIPoet consists of two applications: MIDIPoet Composer and MIDIPoet Player. As their names suggest, Composer contains a set of tools for creating MIDIPoet pieces, and Player performs them. The MIDIPoet environment has its own programming language, made up from relatively complex text commands. In order to make things easier (and allow other people to approach the tool with relatively little pain), MIDIPoet Composer offers a visual way of creating MIDIPoet pieces, so there is no need to write code. MIDIPoet itself was written in a combination of C++ and Visual Basic, and only runs under Windows.

  4. Animalamina

    Created by babel and 391.org, Animalamina, a collaboratively constructed work of multimedia poetry for children, consists of 26 pages of flash-based poetry organized around the letters of the alphabet.  The key aim of this project is to introduce a younger audience (5 - 11) to a variety of styles of digital poetry, animation and interaction, through the familiar format of an animal A-Z.  As the project’s “background” page notes, this work is situated within a tradition alphabet primers that stretches back over 500 years.  This background is noteworthy precisely because of the tradition’s combination of pedagogy and play, instructing new generations in the mechanics of emerging techniques and technologies.  Specific innovations introduced in this recent ABC are animation, audio, interactive content, non-linearity and chance.

  5. Ouroboros (aka. Uróboros)

    Ouroboros is a visual poem whose words are surrounded by the connection wire of a computer. It associates words and image of the cyberculture.

  6. Dressage #7

    Claude Maillard and Tibor Papp’s “Dressage no. 7” is glaring example of anthropophagic inflection in early digital poetry. The authors, continuing to use the same language and themes established in previous editions of Alire, cast familiar words and phrases amidst a wider span of new visual contexts. Alternating graphical pages, verbal pages, and pages that incorporate both propel the narrative. Works in Maillard and Papp’s “Dressage” series address the diminishing status of civil liberties in general, inscribing their views in a new media format that revives the aesthetics of an earlier era with new purpose.

  9. 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).
