Spawn is a mouse-responsive liquid poem that reduces its own language and content into chaos and symbols.

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.

Talking Cure
Talking Cure is an installation that includes live video processing, speech recognition, and a dynamically composed sound environment. It is about seeing, writing, and speaking — about word pictures, the gaze, and cure. It works with the story of Anna O, the patient of Joseph Breuer's who gave to him and Freud the concept of the "talking cure" as well as the word pictures to substantiate it. The reader enters a space with a projection surface at one end and a high-backed chair, facing it, at another. In front of the chair are a video camera and microphone. The video camera's image of the person in the chair is displayed, as text, on the screen. This "word picture" display is formed by reducing the live image to three colors, and then using these colors to determine the mixture between three color-coded layers of text. One of these layers is from Joseph Breuer's case study of Anna O. Another layer of text consists of the words "to torment" repeated — one of the few direct quotations attributed to Anna in the case study.

Clues
Clues explores the nature of communication, knowledge, and identity through the language and postures of mystery fiction. It's a metaphysical whodunit that invites you to solve the mystery by uncovering clues linked to images throughout the work. The search becomes a game that leads you down wooded trails, back alleys, and empty hallways. Which characters should you pursue? Which objects should you investigate? To win the game, you must separate all the clues from the red herrings. Your final score determines the outcome of the text. But is the mystery really soluble? Is winning actually better than losing? Are the answers or the questions more revealing?

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.

Slamming the Sonnet
Slamming the Sonnet is a website emerging from the collaborative partnership of Jayne Fenton Keane (poet) and David Keane (artist and programmer). It investigates the construction of virtual bodies by using Slam poetry as a device to explore implications of re-theorizing the role of authors in habitats of poetry that are made of technological flesh rather than processed tree matter.
This site investigates alternative models of interactivity through engagement with a virtual body made of space, movement, sound and flesh. It becomes terra electra, replete with multiple species of texts, some of which evolve in direct response to the user's actions. It becomes a dismembered cyborg that becomes a part of you as you navigate through it; as your senses are seduced by its voices, breathing and gaze. In other words, it interacts with you beyond the computer screen; it infiltrates your body. It subverts identity and creates a hyperreal competition where everyone is given equal status in its time and space: dead or alive, famous or unknown.

Video Blog::Vog
This interactive video poem highlights the use of collage that is so central to Web work that one of the first Web browsers was called Mosaic. This artistic technique builds a whole out of parts, much like a Web browser assembles a coherent display document out of different kinds of electronic objects, often in different locations on a network. Formats like Flash or Quicktime produce an illusion of unity by mixing together multiple elements and packaging them for export as a single proprietary file.

Phares gamma
The text functions as a sampling of an imaginary database of our time becoming , treated from a program, infinite, labyrinthine text, like a neuronal network, a clone infinitely recycled never stopping, like encephalogram, like life, except biological or mechanical accident, what autorizes the computer, coding indefinitely texts, sounds, motionless or animated images, in constant change or Cyber Flesh.
