The Barbican played host
to creativity
a world of CGI, games and beyond
vast digital wonderment
conceptual art forms
testament
to computational planning
probably now spanning
a quarter of a century
of discovery and more
inventions on a unique theme
which no one should ignore
illogic computation
born of imagination
immense dedication
and collective aspiration
some uniqueness concentrated
on multi levels all debated
intuition relegated
uniqueness then was instigated
it has circumnavigated
every formal cerebration
reaching today’s celebration
of all the good the analytic
mind blowing reasons
synergetic
exploration, conceive, assume
indoctrinate
from cot to tomb
evangelize supposedly
and all with credibility
The digital revolution
provided the solution
explored deviation
with so much information
wonderful interaction
complete satisfaction
look at the reaction
and the general protraction
lasers, phasor’s light shows
tone poles
fluorescent shafts
patterns, new goals
pyramids and smoky eyes
which is why I eulogize
the massive effort
to communicate
and of course collaborate
giant pet snakes
in the foyer
move in fact
as if they saw yer
curiously they seem to know
what you are doing down below
sound and vision
state of play
the digital future
its today
animations everywhere
seeper straws
for the aware
everything to blow your mind
to stimulate
and help you find
new pathways to a brave new world
where everyone is being hurled
tumbling out across the sky
and down to earth
again and why
the revolution encompasses all
the super Mario Pac man school
into the cosmos and out beyond
reasoning can we respond
can we foresee the coming storm
and on that great big stage perform
