6. Butterflies, Busy Weekends, and Chicken Salad: Genetic Criticism and the Output of @Pentametron

   Textual analysis places great emphasis on determining the development and direction of authorial intention to illuminate a text’s layers of meaning. How, though, is one to determine the development of authorial intention in a text that appears to remove the traditional human author? This paper explores issues of authorship presented to genetic criticism (critique génétique) by algorithmically-produced texts – that is, texts produced through programmed logic in a computer rather than through direct human agency – such as those of the Twitter bot Pentametron (twitter.com/pentametron). This paper considers the perceived importance of authorship and human agency in the creation of a text. Algorithmic texts challenge contemporary notions of textual creation and development, in turn posing challenges to genetic criticism that are similar to those posed by cut-up texts in other media.

7. The Importance and Function of Media Labs for the Preservation of Works of Digital and Electronic Literature

   The aim of current thesis is to propose an applicable model of an archive for works of digital and electronic literature in the context of a media laboratory that would document, collect, preserve and maintain works by native artist/authors in the Turkish scene. This thesis is both intended as a co-mediation that investigates and critiques the material infrastructure of the contemporary archival practices with a trajectory on the now-speculative forms of archival evolution such as DNA- storage through a media archaeological observance of existing examples of media laboratories that focus on the preservation of works of digital and electronic literature; and, rendered as a proposal for an actual archival project that would be utilized so as to establish a certain media laboratory for the archival, collection, documentation, preservation and maintenance of such literary works that defy the print-culture-bound dimension of traditional humanities. It aims to encourage the mediated thinking. By employing works of digital and electronic literature as digital objects, it also provide an ontological grounding for the media inherent thereof.

8. Corpus et interfaces: comment penser le partage du sens

   Cet article présente la plateforme #Idéo2017 (http://ideo2017.ensea.fr/plateforme/), qui répond au besoin sociétal d’une meilleure compréhension des événements sociaux, politiques, culturels. Les réseaux sociaux font de plus en plus partie du quotidien, notamment en ce qui concerne la « consommation » de l’information (Mercier, 2014). Le service de microblogging Twitter peut être considéré comme un indicateur pour connaître les réactions de ses utilisateurs sur des sujets sociaux (Longhi et Saigh, 2016 à sur la réforme du statut des intermittents), politiques (Longhi, 2014 ; Conover et al., 2011), économiques, etc. Par conséquent, on peut utiliser ces données textuelles pour extraire les émotions, les sentiments, les opinions, des utilisateurs (Kristen et Dan, 2016). Si des travaux universitaires ou industriels existent, les résultats sont difficilement accessibles pour les citoyens intéressés par ce thème.
