1. New Media Literary: Hypertextual, Cybertextual, and Networked

   The presentation deals with the problem of new media literacy, as compound of digital and network paradigm – whose differences with Web 2.0 are rapidly disappearing. However, the differentiation between digital and network is necessary in order to translate textual typology into cultural analysis – the hidden mission of new media theory from the very beginning.

   First generation of hypertextual theoreticians detected hypertextuality as the basis of new media literacy – nonlinearity, interactivity and openness of the text were seen as democratisation of literacy. The presentation will try to demonstrate that hypertextuality is only a component of the digital paradigm, which is marked by broader flexibility of the text as productive apparatus. (That productivity of digital deconstructionist and poststructuralist theory connected with interpretation, but productivity is conducted, as Espen Aarseth pointed out, at the level of mechanical production.)

5. From Lexias to Remediation: Theories of Hypertext Authorship in the 1990s

   How electronic-writing technologies will affect authorship remains an
   important issue in hypertext theory. Theorists agree that the author’s function
   has changed and will continue to change as writing migrates from the page to
   the screen, but they disagree on the specifics of how print-based and
   hypertext-based authorship differ and whether this digital migration constitutes a radical break from the age of print. Early hypertext
   advocates, writing in the early 1990s, claimed that naviagational features, such
   as hypertextual links, transfer a large degree of textual control from writers
   to readers, thus blurring the distinction between the role of the author and
   that of the reader. More recently, theorists began to dispute the idea that the
   hypertextual reading experience was necessarily more creatively empowering than
   reading a printed book. Exploring the arguments of influential hypertext
   theorists, this paper traces developments in hypertext theory in the United
   States during the 1990s. It describes how poststructuralism has informed

6. Stitching Together Narrative, Sexuality, Self: Shelley Jackson's Patchwork Girl

   Landow, who praises Patchwork Girl as "the finest hypertext fiction thus far to have appeared," appreciates Jackson's mastery of hypertextual collage, which reveals, he suggests, how analogous techniques are at play when we conceptualize our gendered identities.   (Source: Eric Dean Rasmussen)

8. Stitch Bitch: the Patchwork Girl

   It has come to my attention that a young woman claiming to be the author of my being has been making appearances under the name of Shelley Jackson. It seems you have even invited her to speak tonight, under the misapprehension that she exists, that she is something besides a parasite, a sort of engorged and loathsome tick hanging off my side. May I say that I find this an extraordinary impertinence, and that if she would like to come forward, we shall soon see who is the author of whom.

   Well? Well?

   Very well.

   I expect there are some of you who still think I am Shelley Jackson, author of a hypertext about an imaginary monster, the patchwork girl Mary Shelley made after her first-born ran amok. No, I am the monster herself, and it is Shelley Jackson who is imaginary, or so it would appear, since she always vanishes when I turn up. You can call me Shelley Shelley if you like, daughter of Mary Shelley, author of the following, entitled: Stitch Bitch: or, Shelley Jackson, that imposter, I'm going to get her.
