What is multimedia poetry?

Multimedia poetry, also known as video-poems, cine-poetry, or poetry films is a mixed media format in which poem, image and sound interact symbiotically. Also, it is sometimes text that is written on the screen, or text that is simply interpreted by the visual artist with imagery and music. It is the perfect combination of image and word that takes cinema and poetry to a brave new threshold. The visual images often deepen the author's meaning, provide startling contrast, or locate new alliances within the inherent metaphors of the poet's text. Stills, animation, computer graphics, and filmed imagery, can all broaden and enhance the experience of the listener/viewer. With the addition of music or other complementary sounds, the result is a striking and welcome alternative to traditional poetry recitals.
