Multimediality, Intermediality, and Medially Complex Digital Poetry
In Grammophone, Film, Typewriter, Friedrich Kittler envisioned a digital future of demediation: all traditional differences between media and mediations would be ended in a fusion of digital numbers. Kittler’s vision, I argue in my paper, is premediated by Richard Wagner’s artwork of the future: despite their differences, both stage the dream of a multimedial future in which monomediality or medial compartmentalization is effectively aufgehoben. This idea of premediation is further explored by comparing Wagner’s music drama’s to digital multimedia works and events of the 1990’s and early years of our twenty-first century that try to fuse words, bodily gestures, sounds, and images.

A Cross-Medial Close Reading of Swedish Digital Poetry
In the work with my thesis on digital poetry I aim to highlight the following three axes
1) A theoretical reflection considering language in interaction with the visual and auditory modalities as well as an investigation of the relation between language and technical media, using theorists such as N. Katherine Hayles and Friedrich A. Kittler.
2) An analytical, methodical approach, which investigates digital works of poetry and their intermedial relations and effects of meaning.
3) Putting into perspective the historical concrete poetry and avant-garde movements – primarily from Scandinavia.
