However, having said that, I did some Googling on the apparent founder of the movement, Richard Price, and came across this
webpage , which contains a very touching poem of his. It's not an "informationist" poem, but it does suggest he's a poet worth knowing. I wonder if anyone knows anything about him? Or about Informationist Poetry?
