Summaries

Summary Sentence: Head reads from her work at the Library East Commons

Full Summary: Head, the graduate communication coordinator and special advisor to the Writing and Communication Program at Georgia Tech, will read from her work.

Karen Head is the author of "Sassing" (WordTech, 2009), "My Paris Year" (All Nations Press, 2009), and "Shadow Boxes" (All Nations Press, 2003). Her poetry appears, or is forthcoming, in a number of national and international journals and anthologies, and she has been invited to present her work in the U.S. and Europe. As a scholar of contemporary American poetry, she has begun to explore the connections between traditional text-based poetry and digitally-enhanced poetry, an exploration that involves her in a number of creative projects being conducted in the Wesley Center for New Media at Georgia Tech. Her first digital poetry project, Poetic Rub, was featured at the E-Poetry 2007 festival in Paris.

Head is the Graduate Communication Coordinator and Special Advisor to the Writing and Communication Program at Georgia Tech.
