5. I.M.PROMPT.U

   These “12 meditations on propaganda art and Russian communism” make amazingly compressed commentaries on the works it has chosen, particularly in the context of its production constraint of 17 minutes per piece. As an impromptu response from an artist and poet using Flash as a tool, this piece highlights the temporality and visual agility of the dancing signifier. The letters, words, and symbols superposed on the propaganda art feel spontaneous and full of life, questioning, mocking, obscuring, admiring, and engaging the material it dances before. These traces are lenses through which we experience Communist propaganda art, gesturing towards Thuan’s own ideology. At the same time, the contrast between the artistic media and expressive strategies enhances the experience of both, resulting in a work that is more than the sum of its parts.

7. Thoems

   The default display for this series of “THOught-poEMS” is a looped linear sequence of stanzas displayed in randomized fonts hovering in random positions over randomized video clips, while a cluster of words flock towards the pointer’s location on the text. Jhave provides the reader with control over several variables: videos, font, position, and gives him the ability to toggle, play, or pause the presence of text, video, flocking words, and sound. Finally, the reader can choose to see the video singly or doubled with a mirror image of itself. (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)

8. You Secure in Your Job?

   These four short video poems use language attributed to four persons (or shall I say personalities?): George Kayatta, Ed Leedskalnin, Marie Bashkirtseff, and @georgelazenby. All four of these people were interested in personal media: journal writing, science, and artworks for public consumption: painting, sculpture, poetry, Tweets, etc. Two of them are of uncertain origin: George Kayatta is a self-described Renaissance Man, who attributes many feats and accomplishments to himself, including a translation of the Bible into English in rhyming couplets, and the coining the term “spime.” It is unclear whether the author of the Twitter identity @georgelazenby is George Lazenby, an actor famous for playing the role of James Bond only once in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, whose career never quite reached its initial promise (see Lazenby Factor).

9. Seen Death

   This poem takes on the coverage of the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq after the September 11, 2001 attacks particularly how by 2007 it seemed to have been somehow de-emphasized in the media. Zellen composes this piece out of newspaper headlines, data visualizations, iconic images, journalistic photography, text, and news media sound clips to make readers aware of the deaths that result from war and occupation. Slightly interactive, the reader triggers and ends scheduled sequences that display some of these materials in visceral ways that make it difficult to ignore the suffering. This multimedia hypertext is divided into three main sequences— “Death,” “Seen,” and “Extended Harmoniously—” and in all of them we see layered, stacked objects that contain language that has been remixed to produce newly readable poetic texts.

10. A Dialogue Between Two Eyeballs

    This kinetic poem is takes the ancient rhetorical and poetic device of the dialogue to investigate the virtual, conceptual, and perceptual spaces of programmable media. Inspired by theoretical writings by John Cayley and Jean-François Lyotard, this poem explores binaries between past and present, old and new, letter and word, simple and complex writing surfaces, and the right and left eye— each of which has a distinct voice and perspective on the topic.
