1. The Struggle Continues

   The work The Struggle Continues consists of monochrome text set to a jazzy soundtrack. There is one exception from this in the work, a big yellow smiley that breaks with the black and white text. The thematics of the text is about the struggle for sex: "THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES FOR STARK NAKED LOVE" and the texts play on a left side rhetoric with sentences such as: "FOR THE MASSES" and "FOR THE WORKERS". The work ends with the phrase: "MY STARK NAKED LOVE!".

   The work was presented in the Metrotech Commons in Brooklyn, NY in 2011.

2. Poem by Nari does Windows

   This hypertext poem examines language and instructions from help menus and other documentation in the Windows 98 operating system, juxtaposing it with texts and images from other sources (credited in “Windows”) as well as with original material. The formatting for the Windows texts is designed for readers to read them clearly, allowing for Microsoft’s prosaic, utilitarian voice to emerge clearly and deliver instructions for procedures that seem unnecessarily complex. The “Poem by Nari” texts (Warnell’s poetic persona) are made strange and poetic through visual formatting: primarily by eliminating spaces between words, arranging streams of texts in columns, and capitalizing by constraint rather than by convention.

3. Velo City

   In Velo City typography and movement of the words connect with the messages and feelings expressed. It is a kinetic and hypertext poem, similar to El rumor de los álamos by Óscar Martín Centeno. The poem has been online since 2000 and is one of the first known poems of Spanish kinetic poetry. It follows the tradition of creationist poetry by Spanish poets like Juan Larrea and Gerardo Diego because of a new use of typography and emphasis on visual effects. Technology provides the interaction between reader and poet because of the messages that the author transmits to the reader who chooses hyperlinks and perceives the different degrees of excitation of the poet through the movements of letters as well as the directions where the poet wants to take the reader: rising (feeling joyful), falling down (descending to subconscious thoughts), choosing colored words and paths, leaving empty spaces between words (creating mystery, giving new meanings to words).
