About OULIPO: OULIPO (Ouvroir de littérature potentielle [French] or “workshop of potential literature”) seeks playfully to associate the disciplines of mathematics and poetry. French mathematician Francois de Lionnais and writer Raymond Queneau established the framework and first formulas of OULIPO in 1960. In practice, poems are created within a formula or a set of structural limits based in mathematics.
