“Thoughts and Feelings About BEing HUMAN” An ADSS Versescape Experience

**“Thoughts and Feelings About BEing HUMAN”, An ADSS Versescape Experience**

ADSS, All Different Shapes + Sizes, is an artist and innovator living in South Philadelphia. The moniker (real name Armstead Dickerson) is one that reflects their belief in the power of embracing individuality and the multifaceted nature of human experience. ADSS is more than a name, it’s also an innovation platform. At its core is **Experiential Language Architecture (ELA)**, a conceptual framework that uses language as building material to create impactful and transformative experiences.

The **versescape** is one manifestation of ELA, an immersive poetic space where ADSS’s unique **a cappella poetry** – a blend of rhythmic wordplay, visual text, and performance – comes to life. Attendees will also find **Literary Fashion**, a wearable form of ELA, and be invited to participate in interactive experiences like the *Living Journal***,** the *****Verse Vault***,** and other unique interactive applications of ELA.

**“Thoughts and Feelings About BEing HUMAN”, An ADSS Versescape Experience** is designed to not just be an exhibition, but a journey. May it challenge your perceptions of language, ignite your imagination, and leave you with a renewed appreciation for the power of poetry to connect us all.
