March 2nd, 2012 by Christine Wilks | 0

R3/\/\1X\/\/0RX (remixworx) is a space for the remixing of digital media, including visual poetry (vispo), electronic poetry (flashpo), playable media, animation, music, spoken word, texts and more. In New Directions in Digital Poetry, Chris Funkhouser describes the project as “a particularly impressive display of cannibalism-by-design.” He goes on to say: Beyond the high quality of the artworks, [...]

Cordite Edition #36: Tiny Steps: the Electr(on)ification of Cordite

December 1st, 2011 by netwurker | 0

“Cordite 36: Electronica has been a fascinating and challenging issue to put together. It contains forty new poems, fifteen spoken word tracks, a dozen features and, for the first time, a selection of multimedia or ‘e-lit’ works. Bringing together these disparate types of content raises an interesting question for Cordite as an online journal. Have [...]

Inevitably, it’s a contrary game – [...]

Recently I stumbled upon an odd but thrilling little publication from 1966 called Astronauts of Inner-Space: An International Collection of Avant-Garde Activity which includes – according to the front cover -  17 manifestoes, articles, letters, 28 poems and 1 filmscript. The collection is so astounding that I had to make a pdf of it – [...]

Underbelly & Sister Stone Carver

April 18th, 2011 by Christine Wilks | 0

So much history is buried beneath our feet, and histories buried in other ways, by forgetfulness or disregard. If you live in a former mining area in Britain, that history is deep underground. Evidence of the coal mines have been erased from the landscape, swept away in less than a generation. Deeper still in the past there’s [...]

Performing at Inspace and my Underbelly Cabinet of Curios For my performance of Underbelly in Edinburgh, UK, on Halloween at Inspace no one can hear you scream I intend to wear shoes as red as wounds.
