For my first netpoetic project, I will address certain aspects of data-driven poetic work. Rather than attempt an exhaustive approach that considers the different ways in which electronic writers inhabit networks cannibalizing, channelling, and remixing data sources, I will take a localized approach, writing largely from my creative practice over the last few years and through some recent/current projects. I do this, on the one hand, because it is simply what I know at the moment and perhaps may stimulate ideas or conversation (for others and myself as I catalog and move forward). I also attempt this out of the feeling that practice-based dialogue is an under-engaged element in the discourse of e-lit (but one beginning to unfold here at netpoetic).
