THE CODE OF THE VERSE
Poetic writing workshop for disaggregated media
Summary:
The possibilities of experimental poetry, especially electronic poetic work, amplifies the expressive tools of the literary author, giving him the possibility of freeing himself from the limits of linearity typical of the classic book. The workshop is an introduction to some non-linear writing techniques developed specifically for poetic texts.
These writing techniques can be used for different media such as programming, physical computing, sculpture, installation, concrete poetry etc. This variety of supports will be analyzed and then the participant will be able to explore, through their own language and expressive intention, the basic writing resources for its realization.
Objective:
Present the writing techniques in tables for the creation of poetic environments where the linearity of the classic text is broken but preserving the sense of general semantics and the possibility of coherent syntax through the different permutations generated by the interaction.
At the end of the workshop, the participant will have put into practice a series of new writing resources that will allow them, with practice, to generate combinatorial, deconstructive, spatial or procedural poems.
Public:
The workshop is aimed at all those who want to experiment with non-traditional writing processes such as meaning matrices or syntactic tables. No programming knowledge is required. Attendees can be writers, system engineers, designers, web developers, etc. With interest in the poetic expressive possibilities of disintegrated media.
