Between Page and Screen
Coupling the physicality of the printed page with the electric liquidity of the computer screen, Between Page and Screen chronicles a love affair between the characters P and S while taking the reader into a wondrous, augmented reality. The book has no words, only inscrutable black and white geometric patterns that—when seen by a computer webcam—conjure the written word. Reflected on screen, the reader sees himself with open book in hand, language springing alive and shape-shifting with each turn of the page. The story unfolds through a playful and cryptic exchange of letters between P and S as they struggle to define their turbulent relationship. Rich with innuendo, anagrams, etymological and sonic affinities between words, Between Page and Screen takes an almost ecstatic pleasure in language and the act of reading. Merging concrete poetry with conceptual art, “technotext” with epistolary romance, and the tradition of the artist’s book with the digital future, Between Page and Screen expands the possibilities of what a book can be.

Anacrón: Hipótesis de un Producto Todo
Anacrón, Hipótesis de un producto todo is the vertiginous text that calls to the dead and the imagination. Both the subjects are attached to Mexican culture since ancient times and more than ever in our actual global society. Anacrón is an eclectic aesthetic e-poem that aims to respect the linear textual reading of the poem while it explores the boundaries of collaboration, multimedia and video game. Gabriel, the poet, and Augusto, the bandit. The entire project has developed without meeting each other. All communication has been done by e-mail. The journey starts when Augusto found an abandoned book called Caja over a couch in a Cafe at Puebla city. Of course, he stole both: the coffee and the book.

Collocations
Collocations is a work of experimental writing that explores the philosophical implications of quantum mechanics by appropriating and transforming two key texts from Niels Bohr and Albert Einstein’s historic debates about the complementary relationship between position and momentum. By interacting with Collocations, the user turns into an experimenter, observing and physically manipulating the device to materialize unique textual configurations that emerge from within Bohr and Einstein’s original writings. Striking a balance between predetermined and algorithmically influenced texts, Collocations constructs a new quantum poetics, disrupting classical notions of textuality and offering new possibilities for reading.
