Bruno Ministro says: "Plosive consonants is a minimal digital poem based on a work by the Portuguese visual poet Abílio-José Santos. The processes of permutation and combinatorics here developed for this digital “convoluted dialogue” were already present in Abílio’s poem. The code meets the text, the letter, the grain — and a “third mind” arises."
