Electronic Literature Support Group (netprov)
This netprov was an assignment in the course on Digital Genres (DIKULT103, University of bergen) during the spring of 2020. The netprov premise and structure was inspired by The Machine Learning Breakfast Club (Marino and Wittig 2019)
The Premise
After decades of development, works of electronic literature are fed-up with the way they are treated. At once lauded and despised, ignored and overanalyzed, it is time we finally hear from the e-lit works themselves. In this netprov, you are each the personification of a creative work sharing your troubles and asking other works for advice.On the forum, you are invited to share your issues, whether you are a remixed combinatory poem with a limited sense of self, a 3rd generation work with an inferiority complex, or a classic hypertext novel with abandonment issues.

Explorations in Critical Discourse and New Media Studies: Essays in Honour of Rotimi Taiwo
The interaction between critical discourse analysis and the New Media, with their extensions, has become a socially relevant tool used by scholars in interrogating different phenomena such as medical interactions, digital literature, media texts, political campaigns, insecurity and other social narratives.From the perspectives presented in this collection of research papers, it is evident that the days of linguistic research without social significance and application are gone. This finding is underlying the practical approach in the works of Professor Rotimi Taiwo to whom this book is dedicated.

A Trace
Explained very simply, this piece is a story about a man being presented with a mysterious object that is either:
- Directions upon which he must act or
- Documentation of his own origins
If they are the former, then the events that are listed are the events that proceed. If they are the latter, the events that proceed are his re-encounter with how he came into being not as an organism, necessarily, but as a someone who believes in space, physicality, reason, etc.
The piece alternates between two locations: "in here", which is where the narrator builds a space in order to orient himself in relation to the question the mysterious object presents, and "that sort of place", which is where the narrator is presented with new information that both helps and antagonizes him. The juxtaposition of the closed, structured space of "that sort of place" with the open sprawl of "in here" invokes the question that the narrator circles around - whether he can recreate or reconstruct his own beginnings or origins to the point of creating the closed, structured space in which he exists now.

Al-Barrah البرَّاح
Al-Barrah (The announcer) is the first artificial intelligence Arabic novel and the first Arabic e-lit work to win the Robert Coover Award’s Honorable Mention. It’s a collaborative, immersive, and digital project between Reham Hosny and Mohamed A. Nasef. Al-Barrah combines augmented reality and hologram technologies with Arabic language text inside the book’s borders to provide the reader with a unique experience and immerse her in the narrative.
The novel is divided into two parts, each part narrates a different story from the other part. The first story discusses the after Arab Spring situation in the Arab World and the second one imagines how the lost continent of Atlantis was destroyed in a day and night. Each part can be read in the opposite direction of the other part so, the reader will flip the book upside down in order to read the other part, thus the novel can be read from both sides, and in a reverse way.

Climatophosis
Climatophosis is inspired by the current climatic change in the world. In fact, the title of the poem is coined from Climate and metamorphosis. It is all about who is to be blamed for the climate change? -It is the same humanity that refuses to respect the nature. On the other hand, nature is renewing itself because it is tired. It is a call for masses to respect nature and be freed from the consequences of climate change.

The Wonders of Lost Trajectories
A collaboration with the Queensland State Archives, this is a collection of digital poems using archival material built into a physical space. Interactive elements cleverly repurpose old archive equipment such as card index drawers and microfiche machines. The poems draw on Brisbane’s past and recreate the experience of losing yourself in archival material.

Ihpil: Láhppon mánáid bestejeaddji
The blog Ihpil: Láhppon mánáid bestejeaddji was presented as the genuine diary of a 19-year-old, lesbian Sámi girl studying in Tromsø, using the pseudonym Ihpil. The blog starts on her first day as a student in August 2007, and lasts until she drowns in December of that year. Later the blog was published as a print book. In 2010, a journalist discovered that nobody drowned in Tromsø harbour that day, and Sigbjørn Skåden revealed himself to be the author, claiming that he had always intended to do so at some point (see NRK 4 Feb 2011).

Dial
“Dial” is a new collaboration by Lai-Tze Fan and Nick Montfort, a generative emoji-embedded poem representing networked, distant communication.
Two voices are isolated from one another, yet connected by the passing of time over changing seasons. The work is both a dialogue and a representation of monologue over time; time itself can be adjusted using the dials, by clicking the clocks at the bottom of the project.

V[R]ignettes
Originally titled A Million and Two, V[R]ignettes is a series comprised of Virtual Reality crafted microstories. Each individual microstory, or vignette, is designed to encourage a kind of ‘narrative smearing’ – where traditional story techniques are truncated and mutated into smears (kinetic actions and mechanics, collage-like layered building blocks, visual distortions, dual-tiered text annotations) which requires a reader to make active choices in order to navigate each microstory space (storybox).
