4) Gillian Sze (author of Fish Bones) has made forty homemade magnets with her poems on them and strewn them about New York. If you're in NYC, try to find Sze's poems while you still can.

5) Poems are going head-to-head with stock quotes on the stock ticker in the John Molson School of Business in Montreal for the Ticker Text Project.

Please check out a short vid featuring a brief clip of the ticker here. Oh, and my dapper editor, Jason Camlot.
