Two recent posts about using GPS coordinates to "generate page numbers" - but what does that mean?
On collaborative collages we often - but not always - resort to the following method:
We each pick one book, to be used for the entirety of the poem. We create or "find" a list of page numbers. Each page represents a lexicon. We allow ourselves the freedom to use any and every word on that page for writing a line, a couplet, a stanza, whatever is required of us at the time.
There may be wrinkles or additional constraints, to be addressed in other blog entries, but in its simplest form this is how we use page numbers.
Open your book to that page. Use the words you find there to create your line or lines...
(Two methods for number generation: GPS coordinates and capital cities.)
