PR Log (Press Release) –
May 29, 2007 – Dresden, Germany, May 29th 2007 - The locally well known livelyrix poetry slam took place in Dresden last Friday again. Ten poets presented their poems and texts in the sold out event centre Scheune. Additionally, every guest was invited to send its poem as a text message from its own mobile during the show breaks. All texts sent were received by SMS Chatwall (
http://www.chatwall.eu) and were projected onto a screen on the stage. The audience took part actively, as there were one hundred messages broadcasted during both breaks. Mobile poets could write anonymously. Therefore more people dared to present their lyrics to a broader audience.
SMS Chatwall
The SMS projector software receives text messages sent by any mobile phone to be then projected onto a large screen, known as the Chatwall. SMS Chatwall is an established Event and Advertising instrument widely used in night clubs and music festivals. During a typical night at a venue, up to 1200 text messages are generated and displayed on the Chatwall. For more information, please visit
