## What are you most proud of about your project? How have people in your field engaged with your project? Has it helped you find new participants?
-*__D.P.__ I am pleased with the ways in which this long-term project has grown and begun to mature since its inception in 2015. I have had numerous conversations and engagements with peers and colleagues in creative writing and literary studies as I have worked out ways to construct a "changing poem" that will be accompanied by a body of documentation (including photos, video and sound files), and to do this in ways that engage not only with relevant experimentalist compositional methods arising from avant-garde practices in the West, but also in ways that deepen my engagement with Chinese culture, thought, poetry and poetics, and history, generally within the framework of Global China Studies. Furthermore, I am pleased with the ways in which this has all begun to come together with my research interest in the question of the Anthropocene, with a particular focus on how "the Anthropocene" is being critiqued, represented, rethought and mobilized as an important concept to help us understand and meet the urgent challenges that arise from accelerating anthropogenic disruptions of Earth systems and ecology.
I have given a number of presentations and talks on this project over the years, with the project always being presented more as an aspirational project than as one that is ready to present to the broader public; I am enormously grateful to the NYU Digital Humanities Seed Grant for the opportunity to move the project forward to the point where I will begin to share it publicly, even as I continue to develop it and add to it with more urban walks in Shanghai (resuming Spring '24) and the processing and posting of the enormous amount of material that I have generated on past walks; I also look forward to working with digital artists to move from simple displays of discrete photos (and, soon, video and sound files) to a "changing" display of such files that, in a way similar to the changing lines of the "System Poem" ([https://changinglines.net/](https://changinglines.net/) home page), meld and mutate in seemingly endless combinations.
I will be posting an account and list of previous and planned future presentations, talks, and exhibitions on this project, with the official live date of the website slated to coincide with participation in a group show and public reading on Oct 22 at Pollinator Gallery in Philadelphia ([https://pollinator.one/on-exhibit](https://pollinator.one/on-exhibit)). I will return to Shanghai from the US in the spring of '24, and will be presenting to colleagues at NYU Shanghai in the Faculty Lunchtime Speaker Series while also seeking opportunities to present in other venues in Shanghai and elsewhere. I am working, too, on a proposal for a presentation at the American Comparative Literature Association's annual meeting as part of a panel on "Infrastructural Poetics."*
