The Analogue Adventures Begin

News of Global Poetry System’s Analogue Adventures project has spread far and wide. A big thank you to everyone who offered to participate; we have had camera requests from across the globe. The cameras have now been sent out to their first homes in locations from Ripon to Russia. Each new recipient of a camera will be capturing an image of poetry on their local landscape and then passing the camera on to a person of their choosing within a 48 hour time frame. We can’t wait for the cameras to return back to Southbank Centre, when we will be posting the surprise images online for all to see. If you have received a camera then you can update everyone on its location on the discussion board of our Facebook fan page. This is also a place for anyone who is following the project to find out more.

In other news: Thanks to feedback and suggestions by visitors to the GPS website it is now possible to comment on poems. Which images do you find particularly inspiring, or do you know a little bit more about? Now you can let people know by using the commenting function.

Global Poetry System is a user generated world map of poetry. Upload poems and explore the map here.
