  3. The Programming Era: Building Literary Networks Through Peer-to-Peer Review

    A noted literary scholar, Mark McGurl, has dubbed the postwar period in American literary history “The Program Era.” This phrase alludes to the fact that after World-War II most American literary production occurred in and around creative writing programs. Today, electronic literature continues the trend of literature’s institutionalization within higher education systems. E-lit literalizes the concept of “program” fiction inasmuch as its authors must also be adept at coding and programming. Taking the systematic coupling of literary art and higher-educational institutions as a necessary given, what can we—i.e. the authors, artists, critics, coders, scholars, students, writers and readers thinking at the interface of these social systems—do to create environments in which e-lit can flourish?

  7. What's on your mind? Status Updates, Friend Suggestions And Data Mining

    As I'm staging my private life, confessing my current state of being through status updates and learning the peculiarities of online friendships, my very existence is being stalked and mapped by invisible algorithms. Facebook, one of the most popular and efficient pieces of social software, is tracking my posts, profiling my likes and dislikes and learning from my idle quizzes. In essence there are two profiles building, the public one I present to my “friends” and the commercial one gathering mass through data mining. Telling fictional and non-fictional anecdotes, my presentation will explore Facebook as an idiosyncratic and disciplining environment. I'll be attempting to illustrate how I train the machine and the machine trains me.

  8. New Philosophy for New Media

    In New Philosophy for New Media, Mark Hansen defines the image in digital art in terms that go beyond the merely visual. Arguing that the "digital image" encompasses the entire process by which information is made perceivable, he places the body in a privileged position—as the agent that filters information in order to create images. By doing so, he counters prevailing notions of technological transcendence and argues for the indispensability of the human in the digital era. Hansen examines new media art and theory in light of Henri Bergson's argument that affection and memory render perception impure—that we select only those images precisely relevant to our singular form of embodiment. Hansen updates this argument for the digital age, arguing that we filter the information we receive to create images rather than simply receiving images as preexisting technical forms.
