Despite coming from various corners of the world, or having been born here, what brings together the members of Lab.I.O – Laboratório de Interacção e Oralidade, as components of that living organism that is the city – that transforms and is also transformed – is the fact that they all live in Lisbon. In silence remains the word. Several slam poets who are distinct yet united through the colour of their shared dream. Invasive. Intimate. Imbued with idea and intent. Lxpoetas in street performance. From the bedroom, from the Internet, from the bicycle and the bar on to the road of infinite senses. Lisbon is poetry and living in Lisbon is to be part of the lines, syllables, and sounds of that poetry. It is to write it and to share it. The sharing is composed of Poetry Slam, which accepts all forms of poetry, where all forms of oral discourse have a place, as long as it is authorial. And the more visceral the better. Beware, it might go viral!
