Italian cultural magazine Linkiesta featured VOUW's collaboration with Amsterdam city poet Ellen Deckwitz in their coverage of the 2025 Turin International Book Fair, where the Netherlands served as guest country of honor. The article, titled 'Pratiche olandesi di poesia on the go' (Dutch practices of poetry on the go), spotlights the Poem Booth as a prime example of how Dutch culture pushes creative boundaries. Writer Cristina Manfredi describes the Poem Booth as 'un device interattivo a grandezza umana' (a human-sized interactive device) that exemplifies VOUW's slowtech philosophy. The article emphasizes how the Poem Booth embodies a distinctly Dutch approach to making high culture accessible, placed 'in luoghi di grande passaggio per incuriosire e di conseguenza avvicinare le persone alla poesia.' Manfredi predicts the installation would be 'una delle attrattive più gettonate della manifestazione.'
