Hi all,
I thought a few of you might be interested in an event I'm organising
around the topics of geolocation apps, literature, and archives.
A collaborative project between the British Library and TIME/IMAGE, Poetic
Places <http://www.poeticplaces.uk/> is a soon-to-be-released mobile app
that will allow users to encounter poems and literature in the locations
featured in said writings, along with evocative audiovisual materials drawn
from archive collections.
To celebrate the launch of the app, the British Library is hosting a
half-day event around poetic places and the technologies that allow us to
connect with them.
There will be talks on Poetic Places, Talking Statues
<http://www.talkingstatues.co.uk/>, CityRead London
<http://www.cityread.london/about/>, Affective Digital Histories
<http://affectivedigitalhistories.org.uk/>, Tales from Towpath
<http://talesfromthetowpath.net/>, and literary geographies
Find out more and grab a ticket at:* poeticplaces.eventbrite.co.uk

I'm looking forward to seeing some of you there!
Best, Sarah
