Relatively Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of pieces can I send?

Any literary work created by using code is welcome.

In the past, we have seen poems built by recombining tweets, poems created by comments on Google Maps, postcards using NASA APIs, raps built from CAPTCHAS, texts assembled with discarded editions of Wikipedia articles and songs with verses from Spotify's top 100, among many other wonderful creations.

What are the delivery times, key dates and stuff?

  • March 1: call for proposals launched.
  • April 14: deadline for sending proposals.
  • April 21: communication of accepted proposals.
  • April 28: Poetry Slash 3.

Who can participate?

Any person can present original works, published or unpublished, written in any programming language or any digital technology to generate new literary artifacts.

And if I don't live in Madrid, what's up?

If you do not live in Madrid and cannot travel to the city on the day of the recital, you can designate a person to make the presentation for you.
