In times of increasing privatization of public spaces and the profusion of copyright laws, WM allows you to own, trade and profit from words as their value fluctuates. WM offers you attractive discounts and promotions. Don't hold back! Increase your linguistic wealth. Become the owner of your words! And most importantly, prevent others from using them!</div><div><br></div><div>"Word Market" is a 2012 commission of New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc. for its Turbulence website. It was made possible with funds from the National Endowment for the Arts. </div><div><br></div><div>BIOGRAPHY</div><div><br></div><div>Belen Gache is a Madrid-based Spanish poet.
