DESCRIPTION:POETS READING THE NEWS is an innovative digital platform that bridges 
 journalism & poetry. We're looking to keep pace with the news cycle but 
 also to transcend it: to bring attention to stories that get ignored, to 
 share personal and creative responses, and to look globally.\n\nCurators 
 Elle Aviv + Jenna Spagnolo present Var Poetics = Function {EML}, an 
 immersive and multi-dimensional event that explores the electric borders of 
 poetics, activism, and technology and featuring the collective Saito 
 Group.\n\nEvent from 7:00pm - 11:00 pm\nPerformative Presentations start at 
 8:00 pm\n\nVar Poetics = Function {EML} is part of B4BEL4B Gallery’s 
 Emergent Media Lab series & is organized alongside the current exhibition 
 TLDR (http://tld.read.parts/). TLDR is about the influence of digital 
 culture on the evolution of the written language.\n\n{{ ABOUT THE ARTISTS 
 }}\n\nPOETS READING THE NEWS (PRTN) is an innovative digital media project 
 that bridges journalism and poetry, founded by EML curators Elle Aviv 
 Newton & Jenna Spagnolo. This event marks the launch of the PRTN website 
 and our open submissions! There will be poetry performances by the 
 founders/curators, a video room to record your original poetry, and a 
 Dadaist-inspired poetry workshop.\n\nSAITO GROUP is an anonymous group of 
 writers, designers and hackers in support of the right to the city, data 
 rights and economic solidarity — they brand themselves as “semiotic 
 warfare for the 21st century.” They will be streaming their crowdsourced 
 Twitter poems and giving an anonymous live Q&A with the 
 curators.\nhttp://www.saitogroup.info\n
