Enter Corporate Poetry:
I am thrilled to share this new article on my Corporate Poetry project that just got published in Texts of Discomfort (Carnegie Mellon ETC Press, 2021), edited by María Cecilia Reyes and James Pope. In their own words:
Can discomfort be blissful? This volume presents an in-depth reflection of the selected artworks for the Art Exhibition of the 13th International Conference on Interactive Digital Storytelling – ICIDS 2020 – during the most memorable year of the 21st century. The title of the book is the homonym of the curatorial theme of the exhibition, ‘Texts of Discomfort’. In these pages, interactive storytellers explain their work and the ways in which discomfort – and bliss – is rooted in their art.
The essays here also demonstrate how artistic expression so often springs from challenge: the year of COVID-19 produced unexpected artistic and technical innovation. This book is a unique blend of academic thinking, research, and artistic practice, and is also a valuable record of a collection of cutting-edge interactive digital storytelling.
The book is Open Access and can be downloaded here. But, you can also get a beautiful print copy!
