“Spam Salad”, is a selection of my spoems giving a taste of what can be done with English found on the internet (and is done by an increasing number of enthusiasts), by ‘sampling’ spammed English. In spoems, spam subject lines, but occasionally spam message lines too, find a rather different use and collocation from their original purposes; in them, indeed, modularity, recombination or remixability find an extreme textual realisation on the web, with more than a nod too to the preweb cut up and collage, dada-ist, and found poetry traditions, as well as to that of haiku (in the less formally strict non-Japanese form now allowed).

Abstract: | “Spam Salad”, is a selection of my spoems giving a taste of what can be done with English found on the internet (and is done by an increasing number of enthusiasts), by ‘sampling’ spammed English. In spoems, spam subject lines, but occasionally spam message lines too, find a rather different use and collocation from their original purposes; in them, indeed, modularity, recombination or remixability find an extreme textual realisation on the web, with more than a nod too to the preweb cut up and collage, dada-ist, and found poetry traditions, as well as to that of haiku (in the less formally strict non-Japanese form now allowed). |
