Aesthetics of Surface, Ephemeral and Re-Enchantment in Digital Literature: How Authors and Readers Deal with the Lability of the Electronic Device
Whenever the program of a work, created by an artist, is run by a computer, the digital device necessarily plays a role in its updating process: because of the operating systems, the software and the ever changing speed of computers, the digital device may sometimes affect the author’s artistic project, or even make it unreadable on screen. Thus, readers do not know what they should consider as part of the artist’s intentionality, and what they should ascribe to the unexpected changes made by the reading device of their personal computer. Critics who are in keeping with a hermeneutic approach may ascribe certain processes, actually caused by the machine, to the artist’s creativity. What is more, authors lose control over the evolution of their work and the many updates it undergoes. Thus, the “digital” artist is given four options when dealing with the lability of the electronic device, which will be described in this article by close readings of The Dreamlife of letters by Brian Kim Stefans, Revenances by Gregory Chatonsky and La Série des U by Philippe Bootz.

Laura Shackelford
Assistant Professor of English at Rochester Institute of Technology.
My research centers on the questions digital media practices and the global social formations they enable pose to understandings of self, community, gender, race, and nation that were elaborated in an age of print. I am interested in theories of the posthuman as these raise crucial questions about the limits to various strains of humanism and encourage active and critical thinking about what's human about the human in the past, present, and future. I am especially interested in the contributions contemporary feminist and multicultural literature and theory and science fiction make to our understandings of the human as this work flags the shifting and often exclusionary practices that define and re-define the properly "human."

The Grotesque Corpus
Beginning by discussing his experience of reading the hypertexts in WOE (the Words on the Edge collection), Harpold uses bodily and fleshy comparisons to analyse hypertext: "My goal in this essay is to draw upon the entanglements of hypertext anatomy to outline a stylistics of hypertext informed by its contours. The practice of hypertext as a way of writing and reading is determined by its formal traits as a way of conversation. Medium as meat, reading as peristalsis."
