Digital visual artists, designers and dramaturgs Emily Soussana and Andrew Scriver of the new media arts collective potatoCakes_digital designed the following interactive imagined planet based on Erin Lindsay’s poems response to imagery in the workshop participants’ alternate planet collages along with imagery and poetry generated in the first workshop session hosted at QWF.

A Note from the digital artists:

"You’ve journeyed long and hard through the vast reaches of outer space only to find yourself at this tasty chocolate chip of a planet nestled in a milky way of glittering fruits. Take a beat at the foot of a waterfall as it cascades into the black hole deep in the center of the earth."
