  1. 54 61 72 6F 6B 6F

    A computational poem created with the computer as its intended audience as well as its intended platform. At speeds beyond most human comprehension (but at a slow pace for most computers) this poem processes and displays the hexadecimal code that underlies the ASCII text format that encodes most of the English-language content on the web. Modified from Taroko Gorge by Nick Montfort. The title [54 61 72 6F 6B 6F] in Hexadecimal becomes [Taroko] translated to ASCII

  2. unicode infinite

    This app developed for the iOS environment is a reworking of a video work titled Unicode (2012) which “shows all displayable characters in the unicode range 0 - 65536 (49571 characters). One character per frame.” The video lasts about 33 minutes and has a sound component which he didn’t use for the app. The app adds a simple user interface which allows speeding up or slowing down the character display, shaking for random access to the characters, and an interactive function that uses the touchscreen interface and the accelerometer. This is a conceptual work which allows us to appreciate the rich palette of characters and symbols written languages from around the world offer and can be accessed when encoded in the Unicode standard.

  3. Tiny Star Fields

    Every three hours, this bot tweets a generated text field composed of blank spaces and unicode characters that can be interpreted as stars or other celestial bodies, particularly when conceptually framed by the account’s title. Its artistic output has become very popular, rapidly attracting over 70,000 followers and with each tweet being favorited and shared over 300 times. While this project would seem to be more of a visual art than literary bot, consider that it is not generating images, but sequences of characters, spaces, and carriage returns. It is using the materials of writing in the tradition of ascii art and its results are so evocative that it has even inspired a spinoff bot @tiny_astro_naut. Follow this bot to become to explore its tiny endless expanses. (Source: Editorial Statement from the works collection site)

  4. Wikisext

    Every hour, this bot draws language from wikiHow, repackages and recontextualizes it as a sexting message, and tweets it. Part of its process is to add pronouns “I,” “you,” or both to the instructions and actions described, in addition to prefacing each tweet with “sext.” Its output invites readers to interpret bland, utilitarian language metaphorically because it’s conceptually framed as sexting. The scenario of people sending sexually explicit messages back and forth, describing things they are doing to their bodies, contrasts sharply with the step-by-step instructions common to wikiHow, resulting in surprising and humorous results. Follow this bot on Twitter to learn many new euphemisms for sexual acts and the expressive potential of conceptual reframing. (Source: Editorial Statement from the works collection site)

  5. Chess Poetry

    ChessBard inputs the algebraic notation for a chess game in .PGN format (digital file format for archived chess games) and the Chessbard outputs a poem. The poems are based on 12 source poems Aaron wrote, 6 poems for the white pieces, 6 poems for the black pieces: there is a 64 word poem for each colour’s pawns, knights, rooks, bishop, queen and king. When a piece lands on a square it triggers a word from the source poems and the translator compiles them together and outputs a poem.

  6. BACTERIËN

    In het filmpje BACTERIËN van dichter Paul Bogaert en beeldend kunstenaar Jan Peeters worden twee gedichten gecombineerd met beelden uit een Amerikaanse film over hoe men het best toiletten schoonmaakt. De schoonmaker neemt enthousiast de kleinste hoekjes onder handen terwijl bacteriën en dienstmededelingen zich verspreiden en vermenigvuldigen.

    De Engelse versie van het filmpje (BACTERIA) werd geselecteerd voor de competitie van het ZEBRA Poetry Film Festival 2014 in Berlijn. De jury selecteerde 29 films uit 770 inzendingen uit 70 landen. Het ZEBRA Festival, dat plaatsvond van 16 tot 19 oktober 2014, is het belangrijkste internationale platform voor poëziefilms.

  10. . ] quinquilharia [ >

    O primeiro livro publicado na Candonga é um pequeno livro de poesia que procura novos caminhos para se fazer e refazer. Nas suas páginas encontramos uma exploração conceptual e plástica da verbalidade, num emaranhado de estratégias discursivas que pretendem testar a natureza do texto ao transformá-lo em agente híbrido co-habitado por linguagens humanas e maquínicas.
