Electronic Literature Publishing in Europe: Sample Cases from Finland
The publication of electronic literature, globally, has taken place outside of the traditional literary publishing field. The main modes have been either self publication by the authors, or, literary online magazines and portals. E-lit competitions have played also a role. In a situation where no established publication system exists, the authors have had to invent new publication strategies. The activity has been characterised by noncommerciality, collegialism, and close
connection to academia. Publication of electronic literature has often been happening side by side with critical writing on electronic media. Also, a considerable amount of electronic writing is such by nature, that it comes close to visual and auditive arts. It has then found publication channels through these non-?literary connections: many of the works have been presented in art gallery settings.
In our project, an investigation on organized European electronic literature publication and distribution will be carried on. This means that self-?publication by authors will be excluded. The investigation will cover the following forms:Patricia Tomaszek - 18.10.2010 - 11:55

Genre, Form, and Cultural Practice in Contemporary Electronic Literature
“Born Digital: Writing in Digital Media” examines practices of digital literary writing. Through “close reading” of digital works Engberg argues that digital poetry has characteristics that take it beyond the bounds of the poem as a traditional literary artifact. Digital poems offer themselves as “poemevents” that are enacted in ways particular to the digital medium. On the one hand, digital poetry (as well as literary and artistic digital works in general) can be considered in literary and artistic traditions such as concrete poetry, language poetry etc, and thus requires the literary-critical community’s response. On the other hand, it is also increasingly evident that “digital writing” exists in multifarious and emergent forms that require an expanded way of analyzing which is rooted in the individual poetics of the practitioners as well as the cultural and technological situation of networked digital media today. The paper addresses possible critical responses to this dialectic of past and present, avant-garde and popular, influenced in particular by Johanna Drucker’s discussion of complicity (Sweet Dreams, 2005).

Vers de nouvelles formes en poésie numérique programmée?
In English:
I intend to illustrate some programmed forms among the most representative one of the
digital poetry of today. They use two important features of the digital medium: dual performative
signs and a semiotic gap between the author and the reader.Bootz Philippe. "About some programmed forms in e-poetry". Conference paper. EPC, SUNY Buffalo, 2006.
In French:
Cet article réalise une synthèse de mes travaux récents et propose, pour l’analyse des formes programmées, de nouveaux critères complémentaires de ceux proposés par ailleurs. La notion de forme programmée se dégage peu à peu des genres apparus en poésie numérique dans les années quatre-vingts Nous discutons les concepts à l’œuvre dans ces formes en insistant sur ceux de technotexte et d’intermédia. Ayant dégagé des axes analytiques performatif, lectoriel et instrumental, nous proposons et classifions quelques formes programmées.

Electronic Literature as World Literature; or, The Universality of Writing under Constraint
Electronic literature is not just a “thing” or a “medium” or even a body of “works” in various “genres.” It is not poetry, fiction, hypertext, gaming, codework, or some new admixture of all these practices. E-literature is, arguably, an emerging cultural form, as much a collective creation of terms, keywords, genres, structures, and institutions as it is the production of new literary objects. The ideas of cybervisionaries Paul Otlet, Vannevar Bush, and Ted Nelson, foundational to the electronic storage, recovery, and processing of texts, go beyond practical insights and can be seen to participate in a long-standing ambition to construct a world literature in the sense put forward by David Damrosch (2003: 5): “not an infinite ungraspable canon of works but rather a mode of circulation and of reading...

The New Media Reader
The new media field has been developing for more than 50 years. This reader collects the texts, videos, and computer programs—many of them now almost impossible to find—that chronicle the history and form the foundation of this still-emerging field. General introductions by Janet H. Murray (author of Hamlet on the Holodeck) and Lev Manovich (author of The Language of New Media), along with short introductions to each of the selections, place the works in their historical context and explain their significance.
The texts are from computer scientists, artists, architects, literary writers, interface designers, cultural critics, and individuals working across disciplines. They were originally published between World War II (when digital computing, cybernetic feedback, and early notions of hypertext and the Internet first appeared) and the emergence of the World Wide Web (when these concepts entered the mainstream of public life).
