This is certainly an interesting twist. I have to admit even though I am a fan of most anything that is cross media and starts from print, this one puzzles me a bit. Besides that fact that you can’t read the poems unless you are sitting at a computer, augmented reality is most often associated […]
What can printed magazines do that e-versions can't?
