Re:The arrangement with my code is the same as with my text.... by paulgerhardt on Tuesday May 04, 2010 @11:09PM (#1320215)
In a curiously relevant case, concrete poet bpNichol created a series of 11 digital poems for the Apple IIe between 1983 and 1984.

The last of which is only visible in the source code as a sort of pun: http://www.vispo.com/bp/download/FirstScreeningBybpNichol.tx... - scroll to the very end (lines 3900 through 4000). The REM command is Apple Basic for "REMark" or a comment line.

More info and updated ports of his code can be found here: http://www.vispo.com/bp/introduction.htm - the notion of translation (either between languages or architectures), and not yet breached by the original thread, should make for some polemical discussion.
