The Poliverse is a literary resource, as the Palindrome, that I elaborated from the study and application of Fibonacci’s sequence. A Poliverse is a word that contains a verse in its syntactic structure and when it’s broken down in linguistic signs, a sequence of words that forms a verse is obtained. For example: UNICORNIO.  When this word is divided using this procedure, the verse UN UNICO UNICORNIO is obtained. Using 3 glass sheets connected by chromed metal separators, and which measures coincided with Fibonacci’s numbers, I printed in each one of them the words that form a Poliverse. The effect that happens is that a single word is read when someone is in front of the object; but in the moment that the viewer moves, the word is fragmented and the spectator is able to read the complete verse. This technique was applied to 4 different Poliverses, in such a way that a poem could be read. A poem created using Poliverses is also called Poliverse. In this way language and poetry become another system of representations, as well as physics and mathematics, common to all the organisms of our world.
