machine
Machine is an exercise in ludic polyphony, juxtaposing surrealised voices of scientific rationalism, advertising, social media and lyric poetry. Employing a range of fonts and symbols, the poem explores human identity and the forces that shape it. However, Machine is a game: none of this is to be taken too seriously.
"I have never encountered a pamphlet with an honest tinder bio in the first page (’A catalogue of single-use oneiric objects available for your pleasure’); a pamphlet with the audacity to mime the generously scatty 21st-century mind, looking at the world in cursed tweets, tracing macros in wingdings and disappearing one-liners, fonts and formatting flickering, persisting, one big Rorschach test running through a whole scrolling menu of moods."
