Gday everyone,
John Kinsella has just sent me a PDF of the first "Interactive Geographies" project, run on an earlier poetryetc list, so if you want a copy of the final PDF just let me know.

Interactive Geographies: A Poetryetc Project
Interactive Geographies: geo-text as simulacrum
Here’s the guidelines issued for the first
GEO project:
“ . . . like to invite Poetryetc
participants to assist in the creation of a
geo–text. The aim is to breakdown
territories, boundaries, demarcation lines
etc by creating an interactive
regionalism. If people would send to the
list responses to their immediate surroundings – responses to location,
demographics, spiritual signifiers,
gender, and so on – I’ll work the
collective effort into a single text and
publish it as a Salt pamphlet in a few
weeks. Your responses should be
without punctuation and in continuous
text – no line breaks. You will be
appropriated, altered and mixed. So,
maybe Douglas could begin with “Paris”,
or maybe it’s the Alberta Douglas, or
maybe Alison in Melbourne, or someone
who lives purely in cyberspace. Deserts,
oceans, and the maps of circuit boards all
welcome. Interact away!”
