Papers by Álvaro Seiça
This article presents the poetry book Romances do Mar, by Bernardo Santareno, which was originally published in 1955 after being censored and "authorized with cuts" by the Censorship Services of the Portuguese Estado Novo dictatorship. The book is now republished in facsimile with an appendix of typewritten poems that substituted one forbidden poem. It is the sixth volume of the collection "Biblioteca da Censura" [The Censorship Library], edited by Álvaro Seiça and published by A Bela e o Monstro and the Público newspaper (Sep. 25, 2022).

The forms of kinetic poetry surveyed include film poetry, videopoetry, holography poetry, and digital poetry, which are all dependent on spatiotemporal elements. Therefore, there is a focus on the temporal and spatial dimensions of poems that are time-based and animated. Poems written and read with computational media require interdisciplinary expertise, because they are scripted with code and often integrate text, sound, image, and interactive functions.
