The chapters focus on, respectively: the social implications of Microsoft Word’s grammar and spelling checkers; the particular use of the PDF by contemporary poets distributing machine-generated text; the Chinese artist Xu Bing’s novel Book from the Ground (2013), written exclusively in Emoji-like pictographs; and contemporary poet Amaranth Borsuk’s and programmer Brad Bouse’s collaborative project, Between Page and Screen (2013), which offers a mixed-reality, virtual experience of visual poetry through the use of QR codes.
