2. A Vanguard Projected in Motion: Early Kinetic Poetry in Portuguese

   This essay serves to promote a broader awareness of the pioneering efforts in videographic poetry produced in Portuguese in the decades leading up to the formation of the WWW. At present, documentation of such works in books and journal articles in English is particularly weak; the only title that even partially introduces such works is a now out-of-print issue of Visible Language that focused on New Media Poetry (Vol. 30.2). Thus, these historical predecessors to contemporary animated poetry are barely known in the United States. Prior to the 1990s only a few poets used video; much of what occurred transpired outside the realm of English (and some even outside the realm of language, as illustrated in the essay).

3. 'Le Livre' e o 'Sintext:' A Simulação do Sonho de Mallarmé Através da Poética Digital de Pedro Barbosa

   O projeto de dissertação “Le Livre e o Sintext: A simulação do Sonho de Mallarmé através da Poética Digital de Pedro Barbosa" pretende evidenciar a relação existente entre duas obras distantes no tempo, porém íntimas em seus ideais poéticos. A obra inacabada de Mallarmé conhecida como Le Livre idealizada no século XIX e o sintetizador de textos em meio digital, o Sintext, projeto antológico da ciberliteratura, concebida por Pedro Barbosa e José Manuel Torres em 2001, protagonizam neste trabalho acadêmico um encontro simbólico entre a literatura e o computador, mais exatamente entre a poesia e o algoritmo .
   Apesar da grande obra de Mallarmé não ter sido concluída, acredita-se que seu poema “Um lance de dados”, uma verdadeira obra-prima reconhecida pelo caráter revolucionário na história da literatura tenha sido a experiência poética mais próxima do Livre realizada pelo poeta. Tal poema é, antes de tudo, um processo poético, no qual os versos, distantes uns dos outros e impressos com diversos estilos tipográficos sugerem uma leitura não-linear e infinita permitindo várias entradas e saídas para o leitor.

4. Lirismo Verbal e Virtual: Travessia de Sentidos

   The investigation subject of this dissertation is the configuration of erotic verbal lyrism and erotic virtual lyrism based on reflection sonnets by Florbela Espanca (1894 – 1930) and digital verses/poems by Rui Torres (1973). The sonnets were selected from Poemas Florbela Espanca, by Florbela Espanca and organization by Maria Lúcia Dal Farra and the digital verses/poems “Amor-mundo, ou a vida, esse sonho triste” from the electronic address www.telepoesis.net, by Rui Torres. Our purpose is to analyses the lyrism produced by both authors, indicating likeness and differences that the two lyrical forms manifests. The research problem-question was: is there a fusion between erotic verbal lyrism produced by Florbela Espanca and the erotic virtual lyrism produced by Rui Torres ? Or even better, assume that Florbela’s poetry produces a erotic lyrical voice, and the Rui Torre’s poetry, a virtual lyrical voice, we can tell that Torre’s poetry dialogues with the Florbela’s eroticism ?

5. Flash Script Poex: A Recodificação Digital do Poema Experimental

   In this article I analyze digital re-readings of experimental poems contained in the digital archive
   PO-EX: Poesia Experimental Portuguesa - Cadernos e Catálogos [PO-EX: Experimental Portuguese Poetry - Chapbooks and Catalogues]. This project was developed by the Center for the Study of Informatic Text and Cyberliterature (CETIC) at Fernando Pessoa University (Porto, Portugal). I consider how experimental poetics is applied and transformed in the processes of electronic remediation of visual and concrete texts by E. M. de Melo e Castro, Herberto Helder, José-Alberto Marques, Salette Tavares and António Aragão. While digital recreations redefine the source texts by means of specific programming codes, they also reveal the complex linguistic and graphical coding of the printed page.

6. New Strategies of Anthropophagy in Brazilian/Portuguese Digital Literature

   This article intends to discuss an example of contemporary digital literary creation, based on anthropophagy as a cultural mechanism. Oswald de Andrade, one of the leaders of Brazilian modernism, published his Anthropophagic Manifesto in 1928, where he argued that “what is not mine interests me”. In fact, translated into our contemporary culture, this Manifesto could explain some issues of Brazil’s intellectual and cultural environment: the “only what is not mine interests me” could be complementarily read as “what is mine does not interest me”; the anthropophagus would disdain that which is his own and ceaselessly search for the references to the Other. That attitude would be important to understand not only cultural processes, but it could also describe some strategies of contemporary digital literary creations, as Amor de Clarice, created by the Portuguese artist and intellectual Rui Torrres.

7. Barroquismos Digitais

   Existe um barroquismo nas criações poética digitais contemporâneas. Seria este um barroquismo de arte e engenho no modo de as obras operarem e no modo de se relacionar com o mundo digital daquele que cria e daquele que o usufrui. Barroquismo na maneira de se dar ao mundo da obra digital, na similaridade com o modo de ser das obras barrocas, considerando três características: materialidade da obra enquanto doadora de sentido, multimidialidade da obra e a interatividade entre obra e fruidor. Este artigo se propõe a apontar para esse barroquismo e certo continuum barroco na literatura digital.

8. Poesia Digital: Reflexões em Curso

   Este trabajo analiza la recepción de la poesía digital basada en la producción de Mallarmé, Apollinaire, Pound, Joyce y Cummings, con el objetivo de señalar la influencia de estos poetas en su construcción. A través del análisis de los poemas en un medio electrónico, encontramos algunos elementos de literariedades digitales, identificando algunas de sus características. Algunos poemas digitales instan al lector a una relación más interactiva, otros permiten una lectura de menos dispersión interpretativa, y hay poemas que explotan exhaustivamente los recursos del computador, y la postura del lector es la que determina la construcción del significado, independientemente de los medios de circulación de la producción.

10. Portuguese Experimental Poetry: Revisited and Recreated

    Portuguese Experimental Poetry, claiming to be an avant-garde movement, arose in Lisbon in the mid 60’s. It got its name from the title of a magazine, Cadernos de Poesia Experimental, which became the herald of the movement. Two issues were published, the first in 1964 and the second in 1966, organized by António Aragão and Herberto Hélder. The first issue was presented as anthological, since it included texts not only of Portuguese poets and musicians but also Brazilian, French, Italian and English artists. It also had a section which included poets of several epochs and tendencies, such as Luis de Camões or Quirinus Kuhlmann, representing respectively the mannerist and baroque aesthetics of European poetry.
