SUMMARY:Daryl Lim Wei Jie (Spring 2026)
DESCRIPTION:Daryl Lim Wei Jie – Black Box Writers’ Series (Spring 2026)\n   \nDaryl Lim Wei Jie joins us to discuss his latest work\, Mistranslations from a Future Vernacular\, a collection which poses the provocation: “How many times can you rewrite a poem?” Using Oulipo techniques and newer technologies such as LLMs\, Daryl rewrites a single poem again and again. He will discuss the book as an exploration of iterative rewriting and exhaustion as method\, and how (mis)translation can be a creative generative act. He will be in conversation with Dr Antony Huen\, with time for audience exchange. \nDate: January 30\, 2026 (Friday) \nTime: 4:00pm – 5:30pm \nNo registration is required. Seats are available on first-come\, first-served basis. \nVenue: HKU Black Box\, Room 54\, LG/F\, Centennial Campus\, HKU (Location map) \n\nAbout Daryl Lim Wei Jie\nDaryl is an award-winning poet\, editor\, translator\, and literary critic based in Singapore.
