  4. New Media ArtPoetry: A Textu(r)al Surface

    In the talk Mencía describes how her art practice moved from using electronic devices to create physical inscriptions, such as in the installation "I Love You" which was a sort of fax machine that made images in response to the interactor moving a toy car over a stone with the works "I Love You" engraved in it, and collaborative performance works based on collective activities and gestures, to a practice in digital media based on communication and miscommunication in human and computer language.

  5. Is There a Message in the Medium? The Materiality of Language

    The initial argument of this essay is absurdly simple, obvious, literal: language must be embodied and thus its particular medium is—literally, ontologically—the matter, the flesh, the materiality of any message that it articulates. Marshall McLuhan urged us to recognize that media signify, that the matter in which the message is embodied also traces differences that were already what we have come to call ‘writing’ in a poststructuralist, Derridean sense: grammatological practices. However, McLuhan’s copula was not ontological. It expressed a concern that these other, parallel messages were more significant than any linguistic message they embodied. This same anxiety has reached a kind of apotheosis in recent criticism of digital literature—from Christopher Funkhouser and Roberto Simanowski—revenant as no less than our ancient fear of cannibalism. The message of the medium literally consumes the materiality of language: its own body, flesh of its flesh. But this cannibalism would only be literal—and thus taboo, thus truly terrifying—if McLuhan’s copula were ontological.

  9. Transient Self-Portrait

    Transient self–portrait is an artistic research project with the aim of creating an interactive piece.
    I take as the point of departure two pivotal sonnets in Spanish literature that are normally studied
    alongside each other, En tanto que de rosa y azucena by Garcilaso de La Vega, a 16th Century
    Spanish poet, using Italian Renaissance verse forms and Mientras por competir con tu cabello by
    Luís de Gongora, a 17th Century Spanish poet from the Baroque period. Gongora’s sonnet is a
    homage to Garcilaso’s and the styles and the cultural aspects that appear on the sonnets are very
    different reflecting the attitudes from the Renaissance and the Baroque.
