Following a science fiction mindset, OK Do's Science Poems project explored the poetry and multi-sensorial aesthetics of natural science. Having resulted in a publication, it built around a group exhibition at 0fr galerie, Paris in June 2010. Ranging from fashion exploring electromagnetic space to a musical composition derived from DNA base pairs, each commissioned artwork attempted to see and understand, or imagine and question everyday scientific phenomena.
More than a catalogue, the self-published title includes discussions with influential science poets as well as unique writings and images, such as my physics-inspired event scores. It has been presented in performances at do you read me?!, Berlin and X Marks the Bökship, London, among others, with contributors including Megatron Braineater, Claire L. Evans, K.I. Kinnunen, Miska Knapek and Nene Tsuboi.
