RODAISUN is a literary performance group and monthly triadic print publication formed by multidisciplinary artists Iva Čelebić, Catherine Machado, and Emma Cosgrove. After meeting in a university reporting class in 2013, the three began a long-term collaboration that has expanded into a shared, experimentally driven poetic practice.

Brought to you by Andrew Whiteman of Broken Social Scene, Apostle of Hustle, and AroarA is Poet’s Workout Sound System — a creative project that blends, mashes up, and curates beats, images, and vocal samples from poets working outside traditional academic circles. It serves as a sonic archive and, or, experimental platform for spoken word, sound design, and unconventional poetry, often focusing on rhythmic and auditory textures.
