  1. Porting E-Poetry: The Case of First Screening

    This presentation seeks to examine issues around the practice of porting electronic literature,
    particularly E-poetry by examining the case of First Screening by bpNichol, a Canadian poet who
    programmed a suite of e-poems in Apple BASIC in 1984. This work was preserved, documented, ported, curated, and published in Vispo.com in 2007 by a collaborative group of poets and programmers: Jim Andrews, Geof Huth, Lionel Kearns, Marko Niemi, and Dan Waber. This publication consists of a curated collection of four different versions of First Screening which I will analyze in my presentation:

    1. The original DSK file of the 1984 edition, which can be opened with an Apple IIe emulator, along with the Apple BASIC source code as a text file, and scanned images of the printed matter
    published with the 51/4 inch floppy disks it was distributed in.

    2. A video captured documentation of the emulated version in Quicktime format.

    3. The 1993 HyperCard version, ported by J. B. Hohm, along with the printed matter of that
    published edition.

    4. A JavaScript version of First Screening ported by Marko Niemi and Jim Andrews.
