  1. Electronic Literature Publishing in Europe: Sample Cases from Finland

    The publication of electronic literature, globally, has taken place outside of the traditional literary publishing field. The main modes have been either self publication by the authors, or, literary online magazines and portals. E-­lit competitions have played also a role. In a situation where no established publication system exists, the authors have had to invent new publication strategies. The activity has been characterised by noncommerciality, collegialism, and close
    connection to academia. Publication of electronic literature has often been happening side by side with critical writing on electronic media. Also, a considerable amount of electronic writing is such by nature, that it comes close to visual and auditive arts. It has then found publication channels through these non-­?literary connections: many of the works have been presented in art gallery settings.
    In our project, an investigation on organized European electronic literature publication and distribution will be carried on. This means that self-­?publication by authors will be excluded. The investigation will cover the following forms:

  2. The Programming Era: Building Literary Networks Through Peer-to-Peer Review

    A noted literary scholar, Mark McGurl, has dubbed the postwar period in American literary history “The Program Era.” This phrase alludes to the fact that after World-War II most American literary production occurred in and around creative writing programs. Today, electronic literature continues the trend of literature’s institutionalization within higher education systems. E-lit literalizes the concept of “program” fiction inasmuch as its authors must also be adept at coding and programming. Taking the systematic coupling of literary art and higher-educational institutions as a necessary given, what can we—i.e. the authors, artists, critics, coders, scholars, students, writers and readers thinking at the interface of these social systems—do to create environments in which e-lit can flourish?

  4. Electronic Literature Publishing and Distribution in Europe

    A preliminary presentation of Publishing E-Lit in Europe,  a report detailing efforts to systematically survey and analyze the publication of electronic literature within Europe. Due to the immensity of their investigation and the limitations on what two researchers could achieve in three months' time, the authors emphasized that their report was a work in progress: at this point, they had been able to collect primary data about the publications, portals, collections, contests and other forums that supported the creation and distribution of electronic literature in Europe. The revised version of the report would feature more content analysis - of the type of material published and trends that distinguished various e-lit communities writing within specific linguistic and cultural traditions.

  7. Reconfiguring Publishing

    301. Reconfiguring Publishing

    Friday, 6 January, 1:45-3:00 p.m., Grand A Sheraton

    An Electronic Roundtable Exhibiting the Future(s) of Publishing

    Presiding: Carolyn Guertin, Univ. of Texas, Arlington; William Thompson, Western Illinois Univ.

    This session intends not to bury publishing but to raise awareness of its transformations and continuities as it reconfigures itself. New platforms are causing publishers to return to their roots as booksellers while booksellers are once again becoming publishers. Open-access models of publishing are creating new models for content creation and distribution as small print-focused presses are experiencing a renaissance. Come see!

  10. The Save Button Ruined Everything

    Jason Scott is a man on a mission — save all the things.

    But what does “save” mean in the modern world, in the waterfall of personal and private data, and where do we even begin? Turning on the history-o-matic, Jason provides a backdrop to our attempts to “save”, what has been done, and what we can do. The talk will be fast-paced and loud, like a hard drive at the end of its life.
