Comments on: The Future of NetPoetic http://www.netpoetic.com/2009/12/the-future-of-netpoetic/ exploring digital poetry and electronic literature Tue, 03 Apr 2012 22:33:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Christine Wilks http://www.netpoetic.com/2009/12/the-future-of-netpoetic/comment-page-1/#comment-330 Christine Wilks Fri, 11 Dec 2009 00:21:24 +0000 http://netpoetic.com/?p=906#comment-330 Lately I've been labouring in lonely loony elit isolation trying to polish off a project sending me loopy... keep going, keep going...! I concur with all the above and I particularly like Judd's idea of a netpoetic laboratory. I also find it especially valuable to hear from other practitioners. It would be good if there were more women involved too. Lately I’ve been labouring in lonely loony elit isolation trying to polish off a project sending me loopy…

It will be related to netpoetic in the way my work is related to electronic literature and digital poetry etc. Also, I will invite some people to post to it just as you have with netpoetic. But I'm humming and hawwing about the focus of the blog. Digital art is too broad. Computer art is too narrow. Electronic literature is too narrow. Hmm. Perhaps will approach it nominally: rather than defining an essential focus, will invite people whose work interests me and see what happens. In any case, it would be nice to be able to (selectively) auto-publish posts from netpoetic on this imaginary blog and for you to be able to (selectively) auto-publish posts from Imaginary. Not sure if that interests you, Jason. In any case, Netpoetic is a going concern and I applaud you in what you've created. It has filled a big void. It has a future if you want it to.

It is a great resource, as window on current practice, practitioners, meeting/info/reference point and maybe a motivator to individuals like myself who often toil /create in relative geographic, imaginative and academic isolation. Yes Jason it is certainly worth continuing, please do.. Yes Jason, a terribly pleasing beauty was born when you & Davin launched netpoetic.

I am generally a lurker here, but will do my part. Eventually. It's great to see sites like this coming out and thriving. Great job. I am generally a lurker here, but will do my part. Eventually.

Despite my own delinquency (I will address my netpoetic writing project in January), this is a great resource. One of the things I appreciate most is hearing from other practitioners, which is quite unique. It seems that the site works well as an organically growing hub/feed, but without (as yet) the collective structure/infrastructure you would like. One idea I had a while back was for a netpoetic laboratory. Slightly different from a publication or gallery, this would make use of the creativity of contributing writers to propose experiments or constraints to stimulate new work that would then be displayed here. This could extend the emphasis on practice and actively cultivate new directions in digital writing. Anyway, yes, more 'initiatives' could be interesting, but the site is also great as-is.
