The Disappearing
Description
The Red Room Company presents The Disappearing, a new app that (literally) explores poetry and place.
Transform the world around you with new poems by some of Australia’s finest poets, through a poetic map charting traces, fragmentary histories, impressions and memories.
Beginning with a collection of over 60 poems about Sydney, The Disappearing will stretch across Australia during 2012.
Along with previously unpublished poetry, The Disappearing features exclusive videos of readings and interviews with poets.
Users can upload their own poems to The Disappearing, preserving ideas, emotions and experiences about their own environment that vanish over time.

This tool uses geocaching to map contemporary Australian poems to the places that the poems are about. The overarching theme is poetry about things that are lost or are being lost. Students can submit their own poems to the map.
