2. The Metainterface: The art of platforms, cities and clouds

   Metainterface is about interface aesthetics and culture, and as an analytical strategy, it focuses on the tendency in art that reflects the contemporary interface; that is, on readings of artworks. In this sense, it presents contemporary art works, but it also reflects on the current challenges of contemporary interface culture in a situation where the computer’s interface seemingly both becomes omnipresent and invisible; where it at once is embedded in everyday objects and characterised by hidden exchanges of information between objects; or, what it conceptualizes as a metainterface. By bringing the tendency in artworks forward, the book aims to demonstrate how certain critical interfaces have an ability to reflect the deeper fissures within new technologies and the production of the work of art itself; an ability to show us an interface, after the interface has seemingly disappeared into ‘smart’ futures and new promises of anticipation, participation, and emancipation.

3. A Narrative Analysis of the Use of Social Media in SKAM

   SKAM (a Norwegian word meaning “shame”) is a Norwegian television show for teens, written and directed by Julie Andem for NRK, and had its fourth and final season in spring 2017. Each season, the show followed a different teen in an Oslo high school, and it has dealt with topics such as sexual harassment, mental illness, same-sex-relationships, drug use and Islamophobia.

   This presentation analyses how the popular Norwegian show SKAM used social media as its main narrative platform. The paper uses narratology as well as contemporary theories of distributed narrative (Walker, 2005) and transmedia narrative (Dena, 2009; Ryan, 2013) to analyse how SKAM develops storylines across multiple media. It will compare this to works of electronic literature that have pioneered similar techniques, and relate the intense engagement of fans on the official site and independent sites to fan fiction studies and to net prov.

6. (Ghosts of) Generative Literature in Italy Between Past, Present and Future

   In 2006 Tommaso Lisa stated that since Nanni Balestrini’s Tape Mark I, not
   much has been done much to elaborate creative synergies between poetry and
   computer in Italy. In fact, the absence of Italy - homeland of Calvino, Marinetti
   and Toti - from major anthologies, collections, and exhibitions in the field of e-lit
   confirms such a bitter statement. But it is still the case? What is the current state
   of Italian electronic literature? What should be the reasons for its absence on the
   international scene? What actions are being made and what still could be made
   to spread electronic literature in Italy?

7. Axolotls and Perfume Bottles: Forms of Translation, Experimental Texts Rewritten As Migrations To Digital Media

   This presentation, "Axolotls and Perfume Bottles", was delivered by Strickland and Luesebrink as part of the ELO 2017 panel, "Forms of Translation: Experimental Texts Rewritten As Migrations To Digital Media". Its ELMCIP record includes a PowerPoint file with extensive embedded movies, and the script for the presentation, both exactly as delivered.

   The first portion discusses Regina Celia Pinto's work Viewing Axolotls, her transformation of Julio Cortazar's 1952 story "Axolotl", which she considers together with Gustavo Bernardo's book on Vilem Flusser.

   The second portion discusses the transformations and migrations of the authors' work To Be Here As Stone Is from print to multiple digital incarnations. The perfume bottle referenced is associated with this poem in the print version of Strickland's True North.

10. The Convergence between Print and Digital Literature in Blackout Poetry

    The Convergence between Print and Digital Literature in Blackout Poetry study the phenomenon of the “blackout poetry” both in the digital and the physical world. According to Ralph Heibutzki, on Demand Media, “Blackout Poetry focuses on reordering words to create a different meaning. Also known as the newspaper blackout poetry, in it, the author uses a permanent marker to cross out or delete words or images that he sees as unnecessary or irrelevant to the effect he is trying to create. The central idea is to design a new text from the words and images published previously, but finally, the reader is free to interpret as he wants.”
