About me

My name is Hakim, I write poetry as you might have guessed by now. Whenever (never) interviewed, I describe my work as weaving physics, people, the existential question and the odd pun. I have lived in Deptford, London for the last 16 years and was born in Grenoble. fan of Mahmoud Darwish, and to a lesser extent Desnos and Valéry. I am currently exploring how AI - better described as tools of mass automation in my view - can be used creatively to generate music from poems (100% human poems - for the record). I am also a keen runner, since no one is asking.
