KARENINA.IT (poetry in phatic function) A web project by Caterina Davinio on
line since 1998 - By Jakobson, phatic is the use of the language which has
the finality to maintain open and operative the communication channel among
the interlocutors. On the confine between art and critic, happening and net
performance, Karenina.it is a virtual meeting place around the theme of the
writing and the new technologies, in which experiences of international
artists, curators, theoreticians converge, in a net that counts thousands of
contacts in the world.
