"Cultural memory is no longer relegated to the realm of oral storytelling or mass media. Now, what we remember might derive from what is searchable, what we can google." @AmaBemma at #AfricanDH2020 talking about @GlobalPoetics_ .

So sad to hear of the passing of the Ghanaian poet, Adjei Agyei-Baah in New Zealand where he was completing his PhD. Please support his family if you can. This man has been a very supportive mentor to many young Ghanaian poets (including me). So sad!🥹😭

Cheers to more spin-off projects!
The GPP has the word "project" in our name because we are truly a home for poetry projects and thought-experiments.

Per our website, we're an "Experimental Archive, Co-Working Space, & Production Studio."

Cheers to more experiments!
