Matt Nish-Lapidus Maps Microworlds Of Computer Poetry And Esoetric Programming Languages

“Both The House of Dust and Cree# are microworlds, homes for forms of computing and expression that fall outside of the traditional purview of ‘information technology’ and industry-focused coding practices and tools.”
– Canadian artist Matt Nish-Lapidus, linking Alison Knowles’ 1960s computer poem with an esoteric programming language created by Jon Corbett. Well-played references in an essay on the “enchantment and joyful attachments” of programming, Nish-Lapidus uses elemental code to construct his own microworld.
