This space is open to other experimental/visual/concrete
poets/artists or works resulting from the interaction of poetry
with other arts (I’m calling it mixed media for short).
Experimental poetry is also sometimes referred to as “linguistically
innovative poetry”.
I don’t like labels but there’s no easy way to put
it. What I mean by the concepts above is basically other poetry
traditions that are interested in experimenting with language
and its limits, in questioning and problematizing poetry, in redefining
and questioning concepts, etc. This usually includes poetry traditions
that are not considered to be in the mainstream in most countries
or that are not widely “accepted” or “recognized”
by the canon and the establishment. It also includes any type
of work where poetry interacts or is used along with or in interaction
with other arts (such as design, music, photography, painting,
objects, physical spaces/places etc.). The internet currently
offers a lot possibilities regarding all this and this website
intends to be a showcase of all those possibilities.
This section is geared towards poets/artists who
identify with the site and would like to have their work featured
here.
If you identify with the site’s content and
philosophy and would like to see your work posted here, please
contact me.
I will gladly include experimental poetry/art (concrete, visual,
sound poetry, experimental and unlabelled stuff(!), mixed media
etc.).
I will accept simple text, images/photos, animated gifs, flash,
sound, video (if not too long), etc.
You may send anything in Word, html, PDF, jpeg, gif, Flash, mp3,
QuickTime, Avi or Ram(RealPlayer) file formats (and others) but
CONTACT ME BEFORE
YOU DO SO.
You can also contact me if
you are unsure about the appropriate medium or if you have technical
questions regarding the submission.
I am always interested in collaborating with other
poets/artists. If you have any projects in mind, contact
me.
When you contact me, please always use a clearly
identifiable subject line (for example: “poetry submission”,
etc.).
IMPORTANT: Please do not submit
other people’s work without their permission, this site
will not be responsible for any copyright issues.
Please note: I will not include
other types of poetry (i.e. other traditions) because there are
already plenty of sites on the web that will publish that. Thank
you for understanding.
