dispersed holdings is thrilled to announce the June 2025 publication of Gyms by Kyle Booten, a work of computational poetics.

Kyle Booten’s Gyms is at once a book of poems and an experimental lab notebook which records the results of nine computational “gyms,” each intended to challenge and strengthen a particular aspect of the subject’s poetic musculature. Humorous, searching, and inventive, Gyms is a speculative and idiosyncratic investigation into the future of poetic form.
