Passion Talk: Exquisite Texts
Participants at the first ever Offline Camp had diverse backgrounds and interests, ranging far beyond the Offline First approach that we came together to discuss. Through short Passion Talks, campers shared with us some of the hobbies, projects, and technologies that excite them. Here’s a taste of that passion for you as a preview to Offline Camp California (November 4–7, 2016).
Jane Kim shares with us her Exquisite Texts poetry project, in which each contributor adds a single line to a poem while only seeing the line that precedes their own.
Want to try it out for yourself? Test the word “LAST” to +1 (718) 404–9006 to see the last poetry line submitted, then reply with the next one to continue the current poem. As you can see, our campers had a lot of fun with this!

Jane was also featured on our Sounds of Offline Camp podcast. Have a listen, and please excuse all the splashing from the pool party!
