[intro: tech and poetry production and distribution]
For the sake of convenience, many writers decided to throw away their pen and paper, toking up the laptop intead. And again, it was Convenience who suggested we might not need a trip to the library stacks to find an old Milton quote. In fact, we needn't read Milton at all. Just type it, search it, skim it, copy it and paste. What wasn't necessarily expected but just as Convenient, poetry websites and blogs are fast-surpassing journals for the top form of publication and distribution. (My question here, how these need mosts of productiona and distribution are changinge not only the face of poetry, but the body of the text.)
From the mp3 to Flarf, writing forums to Small Press Distribution, technology is changing the face of poetry writing/production and publication/distribution.

PRODUCTION
[the new producer:]
'I get a half a mil' from my beats,
you get a couple gra-an-and
Never gon' see the day that I ain't got the upper hand
I'm respected from Californ-I-A, way down to Japan
I'm a real producer and you just the piano man
Niggas talkin' greasy, I'm the one
that gave them their chance
Somebody need to tell them that they can't do it like I can'
-Timbaland [Give it to Me:]
Assent of the Producer
A newbie in the work of pop music, especially hip hop, I was recently inagurated to the high technologized role of The Producer. Wikipedia describes hip hop producers as "instumentalists... utilize[ing:] samplers, sequencers, drum machines, synthesizers, turntables, and live instrumentation" to create the final song.
Timbaland's album 'Shock Value' . The songs are mostly collaborations with rappers like Magoo and Nelly Furtado, rock bands, and even old whities like Elton John.
