p0es1s. Digitale Poesie

This digital poetry exhibition presents and reflects on the use of 
languages in computers and digital networks: hybrid texts at the 
interfaces of script, image and sound, together with their 
programming and coding. Digital poetry is a creative, experimental, 
playful and critical language art that uses interaction, multimedia, 
animation, programming and network communication. It is also a type 
of poetry whose very existence requires the participation of those 
attending the exhibition.

The curator for the exhibition is Friedrich W. Block, in cooperation 
with Benjamin Meyer-Krahmer. The chezweitz scenography team developed 
a distinct visual and spatial identity for p0es1s. Digitale Poesie.

Many of the artists will attend the opening on Thursday, 12 February, 
at 7:00 pm in the special exhibition hall at the Kulturforum 
Potsdamer Platz, Berlin.
