  4. Understanding New Media Art Through Close Reading. Four Remarks on Digital Hermeneutics

    With the increasing importance of digital media in all areas of social and cultural life, it is necessary to define a conceptual framework for understanding the social changes it generates. This implies to introduce students and readers to the new methods of critically interacting with media in digital culture. Conference presentations and publications develop the theoretical background and methods needed in scholarship and education to approach the new topics. At various universities, scholars discuss the consequences of such developments under the umbrella terms of digital literacy, digital humanities, or “electracy.” Nevertheless, scholars also must concentrate on the aesthetic aspects of digital media, investigating in new artistic genres emerging from or changes in existing genres brought about by digital media.

  5. A Cibercultura em Transformação: Poder, Liberdade e Sociabilidade (ABCiber Vol.2)

    A presente obra reúne textos de importantes pesquisadores brasileiros em torno do fenômeno historicamente emergente e transnacional da cibercultura, a formação sociotecnológica correspondente ao desenvolvimento contemporâneo do capitalismo tardio, articulado e modulado pela apropriação coletiva de media interativos e do ciberespaço. Segundo ebook online da Coleção ABCiber, aberto ao acesso universal, o projeto concentra e aprofunda preocupações teóricas, epistemológicas e metodológicas a respeito das principais características do processo civilizatório aí pressuposto, de base multimediática avançada – suas origens, seu estado da arte, suas tendências e horizontes –, e, em particular, de como ele se expressa no Brasil, seja por seus aspectos problemáticos, seja por sua diversidade e suas potencialidades.

  6. Bitwise: The Logic of the Digital

    This paper explores the ontology of the digital. Specifically I argue that digital technologies, digital aesthetics, and digital culture express characteristics of the binary code. The binary code, which defines the digital, balances between ideal and real; tied always to some material substrate, the binary code nevertheless operates according to a logic of perfectly specified 0s and 1s. And it tends to bring this idealized perfection into the real, dividing up the world into neat, discrete categories, offering predefined choices with predictable outcomes, and shaping not only the materials of the machine but also the bodies and habits of users according to this binary logic. The binary code is an apotheosis of abstraction, but it is an operative abstraction, which becomes effective even while retaining its pure formality. Brief examples will elaborate this overarching argument, considering the digital’s ontological relationships to temporality, space, material, virtuality, uniqueness, identity, determinism, and language.

  7. The State of the Archive: Authors, Scholars, and Curators on Archiving Electronic Literature

    Archiving electronic literature and the challenges raised by this task is a subject of discourse and action as well as a formative force in shaping the emergence of electronic literature as field of scholarly study. The ELO Visionary Landscapes Conference in 2007 dedicated a keynote position to a panel on the topic of preserving electronic literature with archivists from leading universities, and the panel was a cornerstone of discussion at the conference and beyond. The current proposal for a panel on the topic seeks to continue the conversation while extending it to voices not usually included in critical conversation about archiving— artists whose work is selected for preservation. What kinds of experiences are involved in collecting and handing over one’s oeuvre to an archivist? Does this experience affect the practice (artistic and otherwise) of future creation? Are there specific aspects of these questions and their answers that are specific to the digital nature of the objects?
