dead pixel poetry

it is my (@byronstan)'s belief that @internetpoetry leaving the world left a vacuum where image-driven poetry once existed. it is @deadpixelpoetry's mission to fill that void, finding the middleground between fun and pretentious, open-access and gatekept. with a thousand screens at each of our disposal every day that consistently prime us to process visual media, not to mention the boundless online creative tools at our disposals, i want to again create a space for image- and text-driven poetry to meet.

digital collages and image macros don't need to be complicated to mean something. i want things that mean something. i want things that hurt my eyes with how much they mean something. send me things that mean something to you.

some excellent starting places include:

your phone's in-app photo editor

canva

the public domain image archive
