@they_d_bugg Yes! I used to teach a course on it at my university. (I still try to sneak it into more traditional poetry classes as well!)

@gus I am looking to make something with movement for this work; it is essentially 14 sonnets superimposed. I was impressed by Caroline Bergvall's 'Drift' a few years back and was inspired to create something like this where the poems cede and recede: https://vimeo.com/133971915

This image is only four sonnets superimposed and any more would create too thick a texture (and working in MS Word for this is painfully clunky and static)

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Work resumes on the staffy-knot sonnets.
Looking for suggestions for layered-text #videopoem software and textual video-jockeying
