Great to see @funnomad’s BardCode project - original #Shakespeare scholarship as Visual Poetry inspiring many other creative works - here’s a video I put together.

Gregory Betts' (@funnomad) new book: Sweet Forme is selling fast (thanks all!) - original scholarship on Shakespeare's sonnets as Visual Poetry - each sonnet's syllabic sound pattern as a colour grid - here, colours of Sonnet 13 are mapped back into music https://t.co/W5BkL77aOP

[Christian Bok @christianbok]

Purchase SWEET FORME by Gregory Betts—(who translates THE SONNETS by William Shakespeare, converting them all into colourful gridworks, each of which encodes the rhymes for every syllable throughout the entire oeuvre, via @funnomad): https://t.co/xOrBDMRYyU

'The Toy of the Spirit' by Anthony Mannix reviewed - we've collaborated for 15 years - his collected writings was a 5-year project. "The Toy of the Spirit is a dazzling and intricate entry point to the psychedelic playground that is his inner world." https://t.co/skFvH2ssiq

Really interesting essay by @lferney on the history of hip hop sampling and how similar techniques are at play in collage poems, in terms of theft, citation, homage and sociality. Love the metaphor of the “landmine”. My book Where Only the Sky had Hung Before gets a mention:

'Harkin’s Archival-Poetics is an exercise in the right of reply. In doing so, it names the power of archives, so this power cannot remain invisible but rather, can be challenged and critiqued.'
