Making Love: Poetry in Motion

We cannot predict whom we will fall in love with, where s/he will be from, or in what language we will hear words that stir our emotions and excite us to our core. “Poetry In Motion” appropriates real time tweets about love from http://twitter.com and — by using semantic analysis algorithms — generates an endless, variable poem based on random choices made by each reader’s computer. Thus, “Poetry In Motion” relies on global telecommunications networks and social groups to crowdsource poetry and reveals all the love in the world at any given moment.
