![Blackout Poetry. Poetry made from literally blacking out erroneous, unwanted words from a printed page. Making something new out of the before.
Art that has not yet been taken up by the establishment as of yet; anyone can do it.
[I’ve blogged about the virtues of accessibility in art before (well actually I stole a quote from the German painter George Grosz), and I think it’s really important. However, I will save that discussion for another post.]
In the meantime check out this cool new movement; this is big already, but it’s going to be even more massive.
For more info and examples, check out the Newspaper Blackout blog itself. Also check out the blog of Austin Kleon, from whom this movement seems to have sprung from.
