With Pierre Joris, he is the co-editor of In Between, Keep Moving: A Pierre Joris Reader (Contra Mundum, forthcoming 2026). Ariel is a translator of Yiddish and Hebrew poetry and prose, and his own writing has been translated into German, Russian, Spanish, French and Mandarin.

In 2025 he traveled to China as a visiting writer and translator at Central China University and the University of Fudan in Shanghai.

RODAISUN is a literary performance group and monthly triadic print publication formed by multidisciplinary artists Iva Čelebić, Catherine Machado, and Emma Cosgrove. After meeting in a university reporting class in 2013, the three began a long-term collaboration that has expanded into a shared, experimentally driven poetic practice.

Created by Andrew Whiteman of Broken Social Scene, Apostle of Hustle, and AroarA is Poets' Workout Sound System — a creative project that blends, mashes up, and curates beats, images, and vocal samples from poets working outside traditional academic circles. It serves as a sonic archive and, or, experimental platform for spoken word, sound design, and unconventional poetry, often focusing on rhythmic and auditory textures.
