“the wheel extends our feet, the phone extends our voice, television extends our eyes and ears, the computer extends our brain, and electronic media, in general, extend our central nervous system.”
Marshall McLuhan

Bitmap Poemarium an artist book that brings together a collection of 33 conceptual poems.

In a nod to the Surrealist’s “automatic writing” practises of the early 20th century, I created a form of poetry by limiting his composition to the predictive text prompts suggested by my phone. Drawing on ideas cited by the Canadian philosopher Marshall McLuhan, I believe that over time, the use of his mobile phone has made it an extension of my own neural system and that therefore, part of my own subconscious resides in the memory of the electronic device.
