UTA’s Wild Pony Editions and Visual Resource Commons, in partnership with Corsicana Artist and Writer Residency present a workshop and performance by Martin Jackson.

 

Jackson is a UK-born, Berlin-based writer and artist, interested in how digital technologies can be infiltrated and repurposed to create literature. His poetry has received an Eric Gregory Award, and the inaugural ‘Collections Grant’ from the International Literary Showcase. A pamphlet, ‘I find I felt’, was published in 2022 by If a Leaf Falls Press. Poems can be found in 3:AM, Hotel, Berlin Lit, gorse, Magma. Projects have been featured in Frieze and Dazed.

At UTA, Martin Jackson will demonstrate how he uses technology to generate language for writing. He will do a 'live' demonstration of this process, using AI to create rough poems while asking for input and illustrations from the audience. The material generated from the workshop will then be used in Wild Pony printshop to create a limited-edition artist publication.
