 ry and local poets Radames Ortiz\, Lupe Mendez and Byron Jones have joined
  forces to bring Houston @Wired: A Multimedia Explosion of Poetry. \n@Wire
 d is a revolutionary approach to exposing the literary masses to a new typ
 e of poetry reading. By incorporating social media\, music\, song\, imager
 y and technology to enhance their poetic performances\, @Wired seeks to re
 construct the poetry reading and to engage local creatives to actively par
 ticipate in making a unique event even more special. @Wired is crossing cr
 eative lines and bringing together a range of Houston artists to create an
  experience that blurs the lines of art\, technology and genre.\nFeatured 
 Poets and Performers include:\n@radameso: performance will include poetry 
 scored by abstract electronica and video projections arranged by electroni
 c musician and composer Trills (Jonathan Jindra). By fusing poetry with da
 rk ambient soundscapes\, glitch music\, circuit bending\, and intense digi
 tal imagery\, they will explore the connection and complexity of human lif
 e through the psychology of words\, sound and image.\n@thepoetmendez: perf
 ormance will include his poetry with fellow capoeirsta\, Tony 'Parana' Rod
 rigues. Parana will accompany him with the most traditional of capoeira in
 struments\, the berimbau. - the berimbau is made from a long (biriba) wood
 en shaft\, the shell of a dried squash (caba&ccedil\;a) and one slender me
 tal wire. It is this instrument and Mr. Rodrigues' talent that make Lupe's
  poetry a resounding work of art.\n@byronjonespoet: performance will inclu
 de spoken word and poetry accompanied by @PurposedBand bass guitarist Anth
 ony Walker. Byron will explore intangible questions about spirituality wit
 h his impassioned tongue-twisting verse and incantatory voice. Walker's Ur
 ban-Gospel-Funk bass style will accentuate the vocal rhythm and lyrical in
 tegrity of Byron's poetry.\nElectronic musician and composer Trills (Jonat
 han Jindra)\, Capoeirsta\, Tony 'Parana' Rodrigues and Gospel-Funk bassist
  Anthony Walker will be performing alongside their respective poet. Techno
 logy is welcomed and encouraged at @Wired. Bring along your smart phone\,
