Elizabeth (Betsy) Aoki is a poet, fiction writer, and video game producer. Her debut poetry collection, Breakpoint (Tebot Bach), was a 2019 National Poetry Series finalist. Dedicated to “all the women in tech making it happen,” Breakpoint combines intense lyrical free verse with found Python “code poems” to explore the modern technological and societal landscape. Aoki brings the reader into her world of polygons and fractals, Japanese folklore and family stories, computational language and robot factories, and the timeless yearning to be seen clearly. The machines speak in this book, but more strongly, the voices of women in tech rise in the rooms where they are creating the future.
