Uncle Buddy's Phantom Funhouse
Art "Buddy" Newkirk has disappeared and left you his literary estate. By the looks of it, he and his friends were a very odd bunch.
You might have enjoyed knowing them. But you don't: why does "Uncle" Buddy think you do? Where is he, anyway? And what does this have to do with Meister Eckhart and the New York City subway?
To find out, you'll have to pop the floppies into your Mac, drop the tapes into your boombox, and get ready to meet Buddy's friends, read his email, listen to his band, and sort out his (very strange) Tarot deck.

Quibbling
Through motifs of mothering, distance and intimacy, geography and labyrinths, art and writing, nuns and priests, the moon, and sexuality, Quibbling recreates the experience of writing, of assembling a story from fragments of the experience, connecting this empowering process of assembly with the process by which we assemble ourselves and our lives. What at first may seem purposely fragmented is actually as continuous and cohesive as any given time period in a person's life.

The Perfect Couple
From the Eastgate Systems, Inc. advertisement:
"They had discovered the secret of perfect love.
They were as devoted as Romeo and Juliet, Bogart and Bacall, Lennon and Ono.
They expected the world to envy them. When it didn't, they became simply more convinced that theirs was a love the world could not understand. Were they visionaries, or just crazy?
Decide for yourself, based on what you read, in what order. Each one-page scene is cross-referenced to four other scenes, forming a web of surprise and delight.
One of the first ambitious uses of HyperCard for hypertext fiction,"

Compoëzie
Een van de eerste online dichtbundels uit de Lage Landen. De eerste versie kwam in 1992 uit op de BBS van de auteur. In 1994 verschenen ze voor op De Digitale Stad. Volgens de auteur zijn de gedichten 'geschreven voor beeldschermweergave. Ze horen op het web thuis en via een modem tot de mensen te komen. Alleen op die manier komt deze virtuele bundel het best tot zijn recht.'
De geïllustreerde versies van deze gedichten verschenen tijdens een online performance vanuit Paradiso in Amsterdam tijdens het N5M mediafestival op afstand bij de Bredase Kunststichting ter gelegenheid van de opening van Art-Doc-Com-BBS in 1992. De technische ondersteuning was in handen van het Xybertag Artburo.

Ascie en Ansie
Ascie en Ansie zijn stripfiguren van Diana Ozon. Ze verschenen sinds 1992 op BBS Letterboard. Ascie is genoemd naar het typletterschrift ASCII en Ansie vernoemd naar gekleurde ANSI blokjes. Letter-grote pixels die ministeckachtige borduurpatroontekeningen mogelijk maakte voor de getypte omgeving van digitale prikborden: Bulletin Board Systems. Ozon maakte dergelijke plaatjes met het programma The Draw.
Ascie en Ansie konden in een tekstverwerkingsprogramma ontstaan. Ze bestaan geheel uit letters en leven in een omgeving van toetsenbordtekens. De avonturen zelf spelen zich af in de tijd waarin Ascie en Ansie leefden. Hun kortstondige populariteit werd zo groot dat ze ook in andere BBSen uit logeren gingen. Zo hielden ze huis in art Doc Com en speelden bij Det Digit's Art Base.
Met de komst van internet stopte hun avonturen. Ze waren voorbestemd voor een niet-fotografische wereld. Een tiental episodes verschenen waarvan er vier bewaard zijn gebleven.
