PESTANA (Silvestre). COMPUTER Poetry. S.l. s.d. - PESTANA (Silvestre) COMPUTER Poetry . To: Henry Chopin. S.l.: ed. autor, s.d. 1 electrografia; 300 mm. Silvestre Pestana's electrography, this time dedicated to Henry Chopin, one of the central figures of sound poetry and post-war European experimental poetry. His work deliberately distanced itself from the poem understood solely as printed text, exploring the voice, breath, vocal noise, and the technical resources of magnetic recording as poetic material. For Chopin, the poem could exist as a physical emission and a sonic event, approaching performance, electronics, and intermedia practices. Alongside his creative output, he was also of great importance as a disseminator and organizer of experimental avant-gardes, contributing decisively to the international circulation of this type of poetry. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
