  1. Geolocative Storytelling Off the Map

    This paper explores the effects of sonic implacement in L.A. Flood. Engaging locative literature in situ, a reader can pull audio files that come very close to replicating the experience of hearing such files off-site. But same is not true of the visual interface, which is flat and sensory-impovershed. The deep attention one musters reading locative fiction on desktop is shattered by hypermediation in situ: buildings tower above us, sunlight and air press upon our skin; our devices, other people, weather and other on-site variables distract us from concentrated reading. Distracted reading creates a productive, hyperattentive cognitive dissonance.

  2. Last Words

    The complete title for this multimedia poem is “Last Words (Ordinary People Speak at the Moment of Death / In or Around the New York City Area)” and it is both descriptive of the poem’s theme and suggestive of a key strategy. Organized around eight characters’ final words and the contexts in which those words were uttered, each one is represented by a brief “slice of death” narrative, and a poetic voice from beyond that provides an ironic counterpoint, full of Bigelow’s characteristic darkly understated humor.
