This activity started when the Finnish businessman Sampsa Nuotio googled "AM I?" and came across the following suggestions: "Am I an alcoholic?" "Am I able to drive?""Am I allergic to dogs?" "Tell me, am I?." He found beauty,musicality and meaning in the above lines and started Google Poetics, not exactly a literary movement but just an inspiring game characterised by surrealist associations and alliteration.
