Digital poetry

Chris Tănăsescu (aka MARGENTO) is incoming Altissia Chair in Digital Humanities at UC Louvain. He draws on natural-language-processing algorithms and multilayer networks in his communal poetry. His alias alludes to his cross-artform band and/as a continuously growing transnational network of writers, artists, and coders shaping his migrant connectivity. He is the author, editor, or translator of over 25 volumes, the latest of which is a computationally assembled poetry anthology.
