Original work deserves
new ways to be felt.
poetronica[pou.e’tron.i.ka] n.
n. A new medium between poetry and music, where artificial intelligence is used to reimagine poetry into immersive soundscapes under human direction.
Poetronica begins with poets and poetry. It gives original poems another dimension through immersive sound, while keeping the poet’s voice, meaning, and creative intent at the center of the work.
Creating the medium has also inspired related collaborations exploring how photography can be reimagined and enhanced through a musical commentary track that tells a story. Comicwave is a Poetronica subgenre that applies this source-to-sound approach to comics and graphic novels.
