"The Exquisite Corpus" Video-Essay by Talan Memmott
ELMCIP and the Bergen Electronic LIterature Research Group are pleased to invite all interested to attend a special screening of Talan Memmott's hour-length video essay "The Exquisite Corpus" next Monday, Nov. 4th at UiB, HF Building in the Ad Fontes café, 18:00 -- an event jointly produced by the Digital Culture fagutvalg (DIKULT student organisation) and the Bergen Electronic Literature research group. UiB researcher Talan Memmott has been working on this film for the past couple of years -- it is composed of interviews with authors and critics active in the field of e-lit, and was mostly shot at the various ELMCIP (Electronic Literature as Model of Creativity and Innovation in Practice: http://elmcip.net ) seminars and conferences that took place across Europe in 2011 and 2012. In the final cut, the director left out the questions, which have to do both with e-lit and with more general concerns about digital culture. It's one worth watching. If you can't make the screening, you can watch it online now on Vimeo:
