Site is continually updated, please check back frequently.
Featured poets will read, perform, and exhibit works that currently define the state of the art in digital poetries. An emphasis will be made on presenting internationally influential practitioners whose contributions have yet to be publicly recognized in the US. This will be the first presentation of such works in this range and depth in a single venue. The festival will take place over three and a half days. Pre-festival events on the afternoon of the 18th will inaugurate the festival. Then, from the 19-21st, there will be three full days of morning and afternoon panels highlighted by featured readings in the afternoons and evenings. Panels and round table discussions will provide the opportunity for digital practitioners, scholars, and electronic editors/publishers to engage in conversations on crucial, controversial, and/or critical questions about these evolving forms. Though digital poetry has been part of other digital conferences, "E-POETRY, 2001: An International Digital Poetry Festival" promises to be an historic literary event since it will be the first festival devoted exclusively to this emerging form of literary practice so crucial to the 21st century. We hope it will prove a landmark literary event as well as a coming of age event for current practice of digital poetry. Please set aside these dates in your calendar and plan to join us in Buffalo for this event!
