2. CityFish

   CityFish is a hybrid word, title of a hybrid work, tale of a hybrid creature. Part classical parable, part children’s picture book, CityFish is a web-based intertextual hypermedia transmutation of Aesop's Town Mouse Country Mouse fable. Winters, Lynne freezes in Celsius in the fishing village of Brooklyn, Nova Scotia (Canada), a few minutes walk from a white sandy beach. Summers, she suffers her city cousins sweltering in Fahrenheit in Queens, New York (USA).  Lynne is a fish out of water. In the country, her knowledge of the city separates her from her school of friends. In the city, her foreignness marks her as exotic. CityFish represents asynchronous relationships between people, places, perspectives and times through a horizontally scrolling browser window, suggestive of a panorama, a diorama, a horizon line, a skyline, a timeline, a Torah scroll. The panorama and the diorama have traditionally been used in museums and landscape photography to establish hierarchies of value and meaning. CityFish interrupts a seemingly linear narrative with poetic texts, quotations, Quicktime videos, DHTML animations, Google Maps and a myriad of visual images.

3. Middle Orange | Meia Naranja

   “Middle Orange | Media Naranja” (2010) [Video]. This is an HD film (17:02 minutes) that seeks to answer the question, "What is digital poetry?" In order to do so, it must not only describing digital poetry but do so in another medium -- that of film. Thus, as digital poetry is poetry written in the language of digital medium, “Middle Orange | Media Naranja” is digital poetry written in the language of film: that is to say, it is film as film, with digital poetry somehow becoming a presence in the film, like the shadow of a passerby on the sidewalk. Accordingly, this video presents performative moments from Loss Pequeño Glazier's digital poetry, including “Territorio Libre”, “Io Sono at Swoons”, and “Bromeliads”, as artistic expressions in the medium. The objective of the film is to engage the relation between performance and digital poetry -- and between digitally-mediated texts and their poetic presence as artistic works.

5. i made this, you play this. we are enemies

   “i made this. you play this. we are enemies.” is an art game, interactive digital poem which uses game levels built on screen shots from influential community based websites/portals. The game interface drives the poetic texts, the colliding and intersecting images, sounds, words, movements, a forever changing, reader built poetic wonderland. And using messy hand drawn elements, strange texts, sounds and multimedia layering, the artwork lets users play in the worlds hovering over and beneath what we browse, to exist outside/over their controlling constraints. Your arrow keys and space bar will guide you, with the occasional mouse click begging for attention. Each day the internet is humming with a million small interventions. From the humoresque mocking of community content sites like Fark, to the net gate keepers Yahoo and Google, partisan political portals like Huffington Post or the open source/file sharing ‘priates’ of Mininova, the web is an easy tool/weapon for meddling/influencing and sharing/forcing/alluring your opinion on whomever clicks.
