Cast Your Vote Today for the Best Academic Haiku
Jim Gibbon, inspired in part by the Seth Godin's blog post entitled the "Five Minute Dissertation" describing the impact of Martin Wesch's Digital Ethnography video Web 2.0 ... The Machine is Us/ing Us, started a haiku contest.
Scholars were invited to post a haiku about their original research that had been published in a journal.
Jim has organized the entries into 4 categories and the voting closes Monday February 26. You can vote once per category.
Here's a few that I particularly liked:
Counterarguments:
Let them sleep, like dogs? Oh, no:
Refute them at once
“How to handle opposing arguments in persuasive messages: A meta-analytic review of the effects of one-sided and two-sided messages”
Waves crashing, cold spray,
Churning the hot rain inwards,
On ember of star.
“On Heavy Element Enrichment in Classical Novae”
Ears against the ground
Shake the earth and listen close
Echoes share secrets
Seismic imaging
