Haptic Poetry

Information

Haptic poetry combines characteristics of typography and sculpture to create work not only to be seen but to be touched. This group is for anyone who values sense of touch as much as sense of sight.

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on November 29, 2010 at 10:36pm: See? even the group was buried and off-the-page as it were. Be good to have the pics and comments here so they are not "missed" by some who might be away for a day or two or three...

Comment by Marie Wintzer on November 22, 2010 at 11:22pm: Ever so topical, Bifidus! It's making my day already.

Comment by Bifidus Jones on November 22, 2010 at 9:56pm: Americans are in an uproar over the fact that airport security now has the authority to search people in ways only lovers and maybe doctors ought to. What you can't "see" is the Braille on Katerina's card. It's on the upper left side and reads: Haptic Mail Art 2010. You're all getting mail art with Braille on it though maybe not before our Thanksgiving holiday. I'm making the pies tomorrow...

Comment by Jen Staggs on November 22, 2010 at 6:22pm: Maybe the bloodletting? I accidentally sewed through my finger in one of my post cards, is pain haptic?

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on November 22, 2010 at 3:26pm: On a very serious Haptic note received from Bifidus today:
"Tesseract authorities hire medieval Haptics to demonstrate
newly implemented airport security policies"
Great piece, Bifidus, many thanks! (and greetings to Home Security agent s who at this very moment are monitoring this comment :-)
