Abstract (in English):
The paper discusses Tomasula's digital fiction TOC as part of a group of contemporary literary works that mirror ongoing cultural, aesthetic and technical transformations. As a part of what the author discusses as the condition of polyaesthetics in contemporary arts, TOC and similar works challenge readers to engage in multiple modes of reading practices. The works are characterized by tensions and creative production across media forms, conventions, and cultural contexts of digital and printed works.
