3-ply and Poly:be Press present:
tink thank
by Christopher L G Hill

Since
2011, @CLGHill has sustained an open-ended project of twitter poetry,
“a florid poem flailing in reflexivity”. In his artist book tink thank,
Christopher L G Hill has translated these haiku-like tweets for a
non-virtual, printed environment. The result is not an analogue
duplication; through addition, subtraction and reformatting, a new
multi-stanza work has emerged that explores the lived nature of
expression, impression and introspection.
