Internet trouvé: impactos da vida digital em certa poesia brasileira

Abstract

This article discusses the impact of computer and digital technologies on recent and contemporary so-called 'traditional' poetry, published in books or magazines, or songs in Brazil (without considering cyber poetry or software-automatic writing). Close readings of poets like Eduardo Sterzi, Fabiano Calixto, Marcos Siscar, Leila Míccolis, Angélica Freitas (and others) will show that digital technology and internet not only transformed the content of part of such works, but also affected their structure. Thus, the article attempts to understand how such technological innovations become embedded into this poetic corpus as form, and how the recurrent procedure of the ready-made is an appropriation of existing texts from websites that are transformed into poems.
