I’m pleased to announce the release of the first issue of Taper<\/em>,<\/a> along with the call for works for issue #2.<\/a><\/p>\n

Taper<\/em> is a DIY literary magazine that hosts very short computational literary works \u2014 in the first issue, sonic, visual, animated, and generated poetry that is no more than 1KB, excluding comments and the standard header that all pages share. In the second issue, this constraint will be relaxed to 2KB.<\/p>\n

The first issue has nine poems by six authors, which were selected by an editorial collective of four. Here is how this work looked when showcased today at our exhibit in the Trope Tank:<\/a><\/p>\n

“Weights and Measures”<\/a> and “for the pool players at the Golden Shovel,”<\/a> Lillian Yvonne-Bertram<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"193
“193”<\/a> and “ArcMaze,”<\/a> Sebastian Bartlett<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Alpha
“Alpha Riddims,”<\/a> Pierre Tchetgen and “Rise,”<\/a> Angela Chang<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"US
“US”<\/a> and “Field,”<\/a> Nick Montfort<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"God,
“God,”<\/a> Milton L\u00e4ufer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This issue is tiny in size and contains only a small number of projects, but we think they are of very high quality and interestingly diverse. This first issue of Taper<\/em><\/a> also lays the groundwork for fairly easy production of future issues.<\/p>\n

The next issue will have two new editorial collective members, but not me, as I focus on my role as publisher of this magazine though my very small press, Bad Quarto.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
