Experimental poetry produces particular forms of knowledge that differ from conventional literary cartographies of representation and they require alternative readership. This study examines two technotexts by two Latin American authors who have contributed with major ideo-aesthetic breakthroughs. Technopoetry as we will see, dwells in the limits of textuality, literary discursivity and the canon. Complex styles of writing, such as IP Poetry by Gustavo Romano and “Cypher” by Eduardo Kac, recycle languages (written, oral, DNA, computer programs, sound, image), while activating the participatory, and paradoxically, the autopoetic nature of the poem, removing the boundaries between process and product, and challenging authorship and readership expectations. Democratization as well as manipulation of different languages and technologies is an integral aspect of technopoetry, which activates from the margins a new politics of representation and contributes to the reconceptualization of poetry. |
