Poet and multimedia artist Charly “the city mouse” Fasano to release an interactive book of poems using QR Codes.

‘Excuse Me, I Think You Dropped Your Dreams’ is the newest book of poems by Charly “the city mouse” Fasano to be released by Fast Geek Press on June 1, 2012. It is a multimedia book that allows the reader to interact with the poems by scanning QR Codes with their “smart” phone to access Fasano’s self produced short films and recordings. Usually seen adorning billboards, print ads and concert flyers, the QR Code is used by Fasano as a tool to bring his art together in one place by integrating print and digital media.

The poems, films and recordings included in ‘Excuse Me, I Think You Dropped Your Dreams’ are Charly “the city mouse” Fasano’s examination of what he calls the “American mental recession.” Fasano explores the notion that the last decade has not only been economically recessive but dominated by cultural devaluation and self destruction. It is Fasano’s brain movie about how the world was and what it has become.
