POETRY IN THE STREAMING ERA - Tapa blanda

Poetry in the Streaming Era (Paperback)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Poetry in the Streaming EraWe live in the age of streaming. Everything is fast, disposable, on autopilot. A frenzy of ones and zeros that leaves us exhausted, disconnected, alone.But this book won't save you or give you a moral lesson. It comes to remind you of something you already knew: feeling is not wrong. Being an individual is not wrong. Being different - even that can be a cry.Poetry in the Streaming Era is the first book by Colo Lopez. He was born in Mar del Plata, Argentina, in 1972. His reddish hair earned him the nickname "Colo," and he grew up on the exact edge between two worlds: vinyl records and glowing screens, payphones and the internet in your pocket. He was a radio host for years - one of those who speak alone in a studio, dreaming that someone on the other side is listening - and today he writes. He didn't trade the microphone for a pen. He just changed his tool.This collection has four parts, like four seasons of the soul: Echoes of the Void - for the nights when your phone has no notifications and that silence weighs more than it should. For loss, for absence, for what is no longer here but still hurts.Stardust - for those who still search for a love that doesn't fit on a screen. For those who believe the cosmos can be bigger than an algorithm.Shadows and Reflections - for when you don't know if the person in the mirror is you or the character you created for social media. For identity, for the mask, for what remains when you turn off the camera.Life Itself - for mate, for rain, for the dog sleeping at your feet, for everything that technology cannot improve or ruin. For the simple things. For what's left after the noise.Colo Lopez is not a famous poet. He hasn't won awards. He has no literary career behind him. He's an ordinary guy who one day decided his poems could no longer stay hidden in a drawer. This book exists simply because poetry shouldn't be only for those who study literature or those who already have a name.Who is this book for?For those who listen to songs on loop and need a word that stops them. For those who swipe through profiles and no longer know what they're looking for. For those who miss the touch of a hand, the weight of a gaze, the imperfect sound of a conversation without notifications in between.What readers are saying: "Finally, poetry that speaks to the digital age without rejecting it.
