Poetry Spam

Project & Performance
by Anna Krenz & Anna Noonan
2008

Poetry Spam is a reading (live) of spam emails, which computer users get hundreds of every day. We all know the same spam emails about Viagra, Penis Enlargement or false help requests from poor African people. As many people find it annoying – tons of rubbish on their desktops, which they have to delete constantly, I have found poetical beauty in those massages. Poetry Spam is a reading, which is conducted by Anna Noonan (Second Life avatar on screen) and Anna Krenz – live.

The project Poetry Spam was presented in Transmediale08, Berlin, 2008 and Kulturrevue, Berlin 2008.
