putting literature into cities

| No Comments

Found this serendipitously whilst googling for something else entirely on blackbeljones, the citypoems project.
You can find signs across the city of Leeds prompting you to send a text message to a number and in return you get sent a poem as a text message written by people who live in Leeds mainly.
Lovely idea I think, using real physical space to cover a city in a virtual overlay of poetry, which is perfect for the medium at the minute. I like these kinds of virtual physical interplays.
