Feeling without Touching
Feeling without Touching is a workshop inspired by John Koenig's The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, a list of invented words that describe feelings that “give a name to emotions we all might experience but don’t yet have a word for.” Through a series of guided activities that include movement and writing with the body, participants will explore what it feels like to interact with one another without “physically” being in touch and reimagine new ways of languaging emotion in digital spaces.

WORKSHOP: INFINITE NARRATIVES WITH THE NIS SYSTEM
The I Ching can tell you possibles futures. Depending on how 3 coins land in a series of tosses, you'll get a different fortune - stories of how you should or could procede. And in the classic Arabic nights, every night the sultan hears a different story. These are examples of multilinear texts. In this workshop you will create multilinear story that have so many different possibilities as to seem nearly infinite. We'll do this using Non Infinite Stories, a dynamic electronic publishing system that gives each reader their own unique story. For the reader, this means a captivating experience and for the writer, this opens possibilities of new storytelling with the combinations of specific fragments. The workshop is open to everyone without writing or technological skills. Technology is creating the opportunity to explore our creative ideas in ways previously unimaginable. In this workshop, you'll learn about the creative possibilties of Quantum Narratives and what it means not only for you as a writer, but also for the future of narrative storytelling.

Queer/Femme Internet Aesthetics
This fun, playful, one-hour workshop is primarily intended for participants who identify as women, femme, nonbinary, trans, and/or queer. However, anyone is welcome to attend. What’s a queer femme aesthetic? I conceptualize it as a hyper-saturated, self-conscious, postmodern, performative femininity. Glitter, sequins, lip gloss, nail polish, dELiA*s magazine, ‘90s neon pink and slime green. Digitally, the queer femme aesthetic was innovated in spaces like Tumblr and MySpace, with tools like Blingee and Angelfire Dollz. Of course, there is no one definition of a queer/femme digital aesthetic, though I’d argue that the nail polish emoji is pretty key! In this workshop, we’ll first explore how and why net artists like Olia Lialina, Marisa Olson, and Momo Pixel break “good design” rules and embrace a Web 1.0 aesthetic. Queer femme internet aesthetics often intentionally subvert minimalist design principles and usability heuristics, making the user aware of the platform/medium rather than concealing it.

afterflash: Showcasing Flash Fiction, Poetry, and Essays from The NEXT
On December 31, 2020 Adobe dropped support of Flash software, a premier platform for net art popular in the late 20th century to first decade of the 21st. Within weeks, born-digital literature created with the software was no longer accessible to the public––including the 447 the Electronic Literature Organization (ELO) had collected for its repository. By the end of January 2021 the Electronic Literature Lab’s efforts to restore ELO’s Flash archives began in earnest with a variety of methods: Ruffle.rs, Conifer, Webrecorder, and video recordings attained with the Pale Moon browser and the Wayback Machine.
This exhibition, featuring 48 works the lab selected from the online journals and anthologies held in the ELO’s archives, lays bare both the importance of Flash as a platform for conveying highly experimental and compelling literary art and the challenges artists and preservationists face in keeping the art produced with it accessible to the public.

The 3rd international conference on Digital Interactive Media in Entertainment and Arts
Entertainment and Art are constantly evolving. They are tied to no particular platform, format or place in time, but shaped by the visionaries, innovators, entrepreneurs and brand developers who embrace technology, look to the future and inspire creativity. As a result, new ideas and art forms are brought to life. The recent significant advances in computer entertainment, multi-player/online gaming, technology-enabled art, culture and performance do create new forms of entertainment practices and artistic expression that attract, immerse and absorb their participants. The phenomenal success of such a "culture" to initiate a mass audience in patterns and practices of its own consumption has supported the evolution of an enormously powerful mass entertainment, digital art and performance industry extending deeply into every aspect of our lives, leading further to major societal and business contacting changes.
