  1. Faith

    Faith is a kinetic poem that reveals itself in five successive states. Each new state is overlaid onto the previous one, incorporating the old text into the new. Each new state absorbs the previous one while at the same time engaging in an argument with it. The gradual textual unfolding is choreographed to music.

  2. svevedikt ("poetry floating in the air")

    "svevedikt" ("poetry floating in the air") consists of seven parts, each in a loop. Every poem is created out of Norwegian words, fixed in the same position all through the animation, but exposed in different degrees. Each poem starts up exposing a few letters. The number of letters is increasing until all of them are seen. Then the number of letters is reduced in a new way. The words are selected in a non-semantic way, and each viewer will experience this differently. Both the images and the sound of the letters when read are important for the experience. The positions of the words have much in common with how the poet made concrete poetry in the sixties.

    In “svevedikt” he [Ormstad] goes further on with an animation of a poem that moves continuously and will never stay still for its reader. In her extensive catalogtext on “svevedikt” Karen Wagner presents the poem in context of Ormstads authorship. (Source: Hans Kristian Rustad, ELINOR)

  3. Mar de Sophia

    Mar de Sophia é um conjunto de poemas virtuais apresentados em formato hipermédia, nos quais o texto animado na tela é gerado automaticamente a partir do léxico da poeta Sophia de Mello Breyner Andersen, previamente estudado em termos de frequência. Esse léxico-base, que (re)constitui a obra de Sophia, e a classifica e mapeia na rede, está indexado em listas codificadas em linguagem XML, acessíveis ao leitor de vários modos, o qual as pode alterar ou adicionar novos vocábulos ou unidades de sentido. A animação do texto está ainda inscrita na componente sonora das variações combinatórias que deste processo resultam. Sempre que uma palavra se altera, o poema activa uma busca em bases de dados de som, com leituras do texto-base de que se aproveitou a sintaxe e a estrutura formal. Desse modo, o leitor pode recriar, no eixo combinatório da linguagem, um poema de Sophia, adaptando-o ao seu gosto, bem como enviar algumas das suas realizações, tanto sonoras quanto verbais, para um servidor PHP instalado num servidor da Internet. Aí, ficam arquivadas as várias versões de todos os leitores que participam na (re)leitura do poema.

  4. Vive la Bagatelle

    Vive la Bagatelle is a short, kinetic digital poem in the Italian Futurist style, featuring the song "The Airplane" by Futurist composer George Anthiel. Through deft manipulation of Flash CS4 and Actionscript much of the prose seen is randomly selected and displayed on screen. The end result is a new poem with each viewing, every bit as mesmerizing as it is curious.

  5. Velo City

    Velo City, de Tina Escaja es un hiperpoema del año 2000 que utiliza el hipertexto (enlaces) y los multimedia (animación Flash). Tiene como tema central la velocidad, pero no la física del espacio partido por el tiempo, sino la propia del internauta en sus viajes siderales por el ciberespacio desplazándose casi instantáneamente hacia cualquier punto del planeta.

  6. Time Train

    "Timetrain" by Dorothee Lang is an ethereal experience created in Flash that uses the visuals of a train station in combination with audio and carefully crafted text to take the reader along for a ride. As images and phrases move across the screen and new juxtapositions are created, the reader is presented with opportunities for self-reflection. As the bottom of the picture moves to the right, forward, while the top of the picture moves to the left, backward suggesting spatial as well as temporal movements as trains "arrive" and "depart." The text floats in the middle as the pictures show a 360 degree view of the station.

  7. COG (I)

     COG is a user-interactive experiment in the visual possibilities of a poem. Accordingly, COG contains textual and visual material that determines its field of expression. However, as a user is wont to bring their baggage to any reading of a poem, why not give in and leave certain dynamics of the composition in the reader's hands? The idea is that, as visual and lexical materials are never fixed -- most certainly not in the mind of a user -- hot spots here allow programmed aesthetic modulations of the composition. These provide slight alterations of the composition, offering alternative vantage points in the visual field that are subtle, not chaotic but cotangential. This is not an exercise about impenetrability; rather, COG offers a Zen garden of visual verbal shades that awaits the subtle strokes of the viewer's rake-cum-Rodentia.
