POUNDIAN is a project studying Ezra Pound
and The Cantos    through digital methods.

It has two main goals:

1. The discovery of form in The Cantos
2. The creation of a tool for study

Part 1 is an art that is bound to fail.

Where Pound’s poetry has a science, we will bring it to light.

     The result will be The Cantos visualised

    and ‘poetry’ wried from its centre.

   Part 2 will modernise study.

We want to be able to ask, and be answered

to search for what no-one has said.

We need an island of data

             and an albatross.
