  1. Text-World–World-Text

    From Mai to June Forum Stadtpark Graz and three other European institutions for contemporary literature (Lettrétage – Berlin, Nuoren Voiman Liitto - Helsinki, Ideogramma – Nikosia) will carry out a project called CROWD which will host a literary bus-tour from Finland to Cyprus featuring around 100 authors with the main aim of establishing a more interwoven network for European Independent-literature.

    In the framework of this bus-tour we will also make a stop at the Forum Stadtpark, where the symposium Text World World Text – About the relationship between experiment, politics and literature will be held. On two days (17th and 18th of June, 2016) more than 20 authors from Europe and beyond, who are working in the field of so-called experimental literature will discuss todays role of the author in society and also offer an in-depth look on their literary and aesthetic approach and perspective.

  2. Affiliations - Remix and Intervene: Computing Sound and Visual Poetry

    In  this  exhibit,  sound  is  represented  as  an  overarching  medium  connecting  the  artworks displayed. Visitors of the “Affiliations” exhibit will find poetic works that radically explore language and sound. For the curators, sound is one of the fundamental aspects, if not the core, of experimental and digital poetics. Yet, as some writers  and  critics  have  pointed  out  - especially  Chris  Funkhouser,  Hazel  Smith,  and John Barber - sound has not been sufficiently highlighted as a fundamental trait of electronic literature.

    The “Affiliations” exhibit presents works that embrace appropriation and remix of older and contemporary pieces - be they merely formalist or politically engaged - as pervasive creative methods in experimental poetics. Furthermore, it suggests that  electronic  literature  can  be  seen  as  a  heterogeneous  field  of  self-reflexive experimentation with the medium, language, sound, code, and space.
