Abstract

Eighty Days is a poem written in collaboration with the digital location application what3words and was generated by inputting the travel destinations of Jules Verne’s fictional protagonist Phileas Fogg. When working with non-human collaborators we are, perhaps inadvertently, establishing a mode of practice in which the cultural privilege afforded to human authorship is reoriented to formulate a new collaborative paradigm. This poetic gesture considers this new paradigm in relation to the Derridean supplement, the methodological approaches of the OuLiPo group and the production of socio-digital linguistic rhythms.
