1. Ethics and Aesthetics of (Digital) Space: Institutions, Borders, and Transnational Frameworks of Digital Creative Practice in Ireland

   Discussing the works of three digital creative practitioners working in Ireland, Anne Karhio situates Ireland itself as a case study for demonstrating the ways in which electronic literature as a seemingly global and transnational practice can confront the complexly situated realities of everyday embodiment, technological materiality, and politicization of national borders. She thus recommends electronic literature be seen as more crucial part of digital arts and humanities research in Ireland and elsewhere.

2. When Error Rates Fail: Digital Humanities Concepts as a Guide for Electronic Literature Research

   How do we think about things — like electronic literature — that combine the operational aspects of computing systems with the affective and representational aspects of the arts? We could view them through the frameworks of computer science, the literary arts, or critical interpretation. These can all be valuable. But they are all, inevitably, partial. Wardrip-Fruin proposes that digital humanities frameworks can provide a way of thinking about the dual elements of electronic literature simultaneously. Here he provides a case study: a strand of research that is both in computational approaches to social simulation and in the creation of works that build upon, and guide the development of, these simulations. He discusses the digital humanities concepts of operational logics and playable models that help him and his collaborators understand their work as they carry it out.

3. Excavating Logics of White Supremacy in Electronic Literature: Antiracism as Infrastructural Critique

   Thinking about the ways in which critical infrastructure studies can allow us to engage in antiracism critiques and practices, Ryan Ikeda provocatively challenges the electronic literature community to address some of the symbolic and material structures that he argues uphold the field. To this end, Ikeda positions elit infrastructure as dynamic and generative sites of cultural activity, and attends, in particular to the ELMCIP Knowledge Base, recent ebr discourses on decolonization, ELO fellowships, and literary historical genealogies, to examine how each constructs, affirms, racializes and extends power, privilege, and status to its members.

   In an effort to preserve works of electronic literature, ELO has developed the ELO Repository that collects and/or manages online journals, works of electronic literature, community archives, and other digital materials for other organizations and makes them available to the public.  The development process, tools used, and the aims and purposes of the project were discussed.

   Online writing is revolutionary - and no solitary affair. The Electronic Literature Organization presented award-winning authors reading from their projected work: Shelley Jackson's monster showed off her stitches, with the audience indicating which thread to follow. The Unknown let the audience yell out when they wanted to switch scenes. The Ed Report team offered a "press conference" about their mock government report. M.D. Coverley revealed "Hidden Places in Califia," reading the concealed beginning and ending of a story about a character the audience selects.

9. Salon June 8 2021: Playable Comms

   Playable Comms is an interdisciplinary, collaborative network of projects with the aim of examining interactive digital narratives (IDNs) as tools for educating audiences on topics of science and health. More specifically, the research evaluates the efficacy of using IDNs for health and sci-comm, attempting to measure message uptake from outright rejection to holistic adoption engendering associated behavioural change. As a practice-based practitioner/researcher composing IDNs and evaluating their efficacy on multiple projects, I aim to develop a model for health and science communication through reading and writing IDNs that can be implemented in a wide array of scenarios and topic areas.

10. Salon July 13 2021: Structuring Metadata for Born-Digital Literature for The NEXT: What Artists, Editors, Scholars, and Collectors Need to Know

    This presentation details how to structure metadata about born-digital literature for collections in The NEXT. It introduces the extended metadata schema the Electronic Literature Lab (ELL) utilizes for The NEXT, showing both how information displays on the front end of the spaces, as well as organized on the back end for the database.

    Leading the discussion is Dene Grigar, Director of ELL and the Managing Director and Curator of The NEXT, and Richard Snyder, Assistant Director of ELL and the Metadata Specialist for The NEXT.

    If you currently have works held in The NEXT or are thinking of donating them in the future, this presentation will shed light on the process undertaken to ensure works are accessible and provide precise information about them. Participants will leave the presentation with a copy of both the schema ELL is using and an metadata spreadsheet template for their own use.
