Outline
This visual poetry piece transforms words of poems into music and images. As a performer types on a keyboard, sounds and visual images are produced on the stage. They are determined by the sequence of letters, words, and expressive pauses. An Olivetti typewriter connected to a computer functions as mechanical device, musical instrument, and video mixer.
