Junction of Image, Text, and Sound in Net.fictions
Since modernism, the experimental art has been filled with the flow of “intermedial turn“, projected in/through all its forms and has found one of its ”stations“ in the form of digital fictions. The subject of my attention lies in the research and analysis of the multimedial fictions on internet through the junction of image, text and sound into the communicative unit. I implement the narratological point of view, and perceive these works of art also from the prism of their reception and subsequent reader’s projection of the fictional world, which could result in her immersion in it.

For Thee: A Response to Alice Bell
In an essay that responds to Alice Bell's book The Possible Worlds of Hypertext Fiction (Palgrave Macmillan, 2010), Stuart Moulthrop uses the lessons of hypertext as both an analogy and an explanation for why hypertext and its criticism will stay in a "niche" - and why, despite Bell's concern, that's not such a bad thing. As the response of an author to his critic, addressed to "thee," "implicitly dragging her into the niche with me," this review also dramatizes the very productivity of such specialized, nodal encounters.

Is Life Like a Book or a Smart Phone? Why Form in Fiction Matters
Rob Wittig's 17 minute video lecture, recorded for a TEDx event at the University of Minnesota / Duluth, lays out some ideas about connections between the design of printed books and a particular idea of life in contemporary culture, in contrast to a model of life based on postmodern ideas of identity. He also references the context of literary history in considering the forms of literature that might be suited to a culture of multitasking and smart phones, at one point comparing Don Quixote to a contemporary gadget-obsessed digital native. The talk and accompanying slideshow provide a useful introduction to some important questions about the relationship between contemporary technologies and literary form.

Polyaesthetics in Digital Literary Arts: Steve Tomasula's TOC and Multimedia Fiction
The paper discusses Tomasula's digital fiction TOC as part of a group of contemporary literary works that mirror ongoing cultural, aesthetic and technical transformations. As a part of what the author discusses as the condition of polyaesthetics in contemporary arts, TOC and similar works challenge readers to engage in multiple modes of reading practices. The works are characterized by tensions and creative production across media forms, conventions, and cultural contexts of digital and printed works.
