[On"Human Readable Messages"] "[A] classic...A sea of linguistic invention: unsurpassed technical innovation in terms of print language. Reading the various passages for the first time I felt I was privy to a new form of expression not merely a creole or amalgam, something really new. Mez is brilliant." - Michael J. Maguire

"Code Poetry often refers to work such as Mez Breeze’s. Her Mezangelle complicates the line between human and machine communication in a way informed more from a literary tradition than code art’s contemporary art perspective. The broken, code-like assemblages of words layer meanings, but unlike in code art, it’s not important for the resulting piece to function as executable code. Code poetry is a creole between machine and human communication." - Daniel Temkin, "Esoteric.codes"

"This notion of source code as readable - as creating some outcome regardless of its machinic execution - underlies "codework" and other creative projects. The Internet artist Mez, for instance, has created a language called mezangelle that incorporates formal code and informal speech. Mez's poetry deliberately plays with programming syntax, producing language that cannot be executed, but nonetheless draws on the conventions of programming language to signify."

"For many immigrants, creole is a way to carve out their own language from within a dominant one. With her “mezangelle”, Mez creates a minor language using dominant languages of humans and machine - a kind of creole that disrupts the prescribed utility of both word and code, opening them up to new meaning and play..."

"The history of the culture of AI is one of rigorous great failure. AI is
a form of literature, the tragedic drama of the hacker class. Mez is
indeed relevant here as the mirror image of AI, "Turings Man" ironized..."

"For those that don’t know, Mez is a legend in digital arts. She is
internationally known for her digital works, including inventing her own
language... Both Mez and Jason Nelson are two giants in electronic literature that
we have here in Australia. It is a pleasure to know, and be encouraged,
by both of them."
