Location, sensation, interaction, and community combine to create place.

Greenpoint Poetry Sites is a platform for creating our collective community poem. We have placed stickers of 2d barcodes in six locations around Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Those stickers are writable nodes that you can access with your smartphone. Taking a picture of the barcode on the sticker will launch an editable mobile blog on your web enabled smartphone. Then you can immediately enter text based on whatever you may be reacting to in that place at that moment. Is it raining and cold? Does a smell in the air remind you of a long forgotten memory? Start writing.

Your participation will create six crowdsourced neighborhood 'poems'; a reflection of a specific piece of our community's presence or consciousness in relation to a specific location.
