- Stephanie Strickland’s ten books of poetry include How the Universe Is Made: Poems New & Selected (2019) and Ringing the Changes (2020), a code-generated project for print based on the ancient art of tower bell-ringing. Her print work garnered two Di Castagnola Prizes, the Sandeen, Brittingham, NEH, NEA, and Boston Review awards. Her co-authored twelve works of electronic literature include slippingglimpse, which maps text to Atlantic wave patterns; House of Trust, an homage to free public libraries; Hours of the Night, an MP4 PowerPoint poem probing age and sleep; and Liberty Ring! (2020). Her folio, For the Pandemics—Say What?, was selected for Tupelo Press’s Four Quartets: Poetry in the Pandemic (2020) and her work was also collected in Poetics for the More-than-Human World (2020). Her work across print and multiple media is being collected by the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Duke University. http://stephaniestrickland.com

I assisted on this project so rather than me praising it, I will invite you to look at the collection of links and reviews is at stephaniestrickland.com/ringing. This description by Lai-Tze Fan serves as a good introduction:
"Strickland continues the tradition of poetic text generation, engaging at the same with material constraints resulting from 17th century pattern-ringing. The practice consists of competing teams ringing church bells based on highly complex mathematical patterns. Building show more on these, the poet and her team created elaborate and complex algorithms that generate the poetry woven out of textual data harvested from writings of Sha Xin Wei, Simone Weil, Hito Steyerl, and Yuk Hui among others. Written with Python code, the work demonstrates the powerful 'poetics of juxtaposition', where the list of names of Black men and women subjected to state-sanctioned violence strongly resonates throughout the whole text." show less
