General Poetry: Between Page and Screen A convergence of old and new technologies an unlikely marriage of print and digital Between age and Screen chronicles a love affair between the characters and S while taking the reader into a wondrous augmented reality The book has no words only inscrutable black and white geometric patterns that when coupled with a computer webcam conjure the text Reflected on screen the reader sees himself with open book in hand language springing alive and shape shifting with each turn of the page The story unfolds through a playf and cryptic exchange of letters between and S as they struggle to define their passionate but fraught relationship Rich with innuendo anagrams etymological and sonic affinities between words Between age and Screen takes an almost ecstatic pleasure in language and the act of reading Merging concrete poetry with conceptual art and the tradition of the artist s book with the digital future Between age and Screen expands the possibilities of what a book can be
