Minecraft Poem

Dislike 0 Published on 10 Sep 2013

This is a gamepoem. It's not just a poem and not just a game. It's both! This is a project discussed and created for my fourth chapter of my dissertation. It is an exercise for "reading" a poem. Of course, the act of reading a poem is replaced with "playing" challenging our experience of understanding a poem. The text, imagery, and interactive elements convolute our ability to "make sense" of a poem. As a result, constraint rhetorics of digital poetry direct how we will interpret, read, and, eventually, write/engage with our virtual/augmented spatial reality. I invite you to email me regarding other purposes for using this project for a rhetoric and composition university course.
