1. The Archeological Media Lab: A Locavore Approach to Access & Preservation

   The paper describes the Archeological Media Lab, aligning it with the field of Media Archaeology (at the moment the best writings on M.A. in English are probably best found in Erkki Huhtamo and Jussi Parikka’s forthcoming Media Archaeology: Approaches, Applications, and Implications). The lab tries to take on a locavore approach to both sustaining and framing e-literature – one that is primarily hands-on and resolutely of the local, with only a very modest global or online presence.

4. Editor's Introduction: Reconfiguring Place and Space in New Media Writing

   This installment of the Iowa Review Web explores the function of place and space in recent new media writing. Each of the four interviews concern works that in some way attempt to reconfigure our understanding of the relationship between space and storytelling. Each of the primary works discussed in these interviews also pushes space in another sense, in that each attempts to explore a new "possibility space" on the boundary between different forms and fields of multimedia experience: between story and game, between game and drama, between literature and conceptual art, between game and performance. The introduction contextualizes the narrative function of space in a number of recent works of electronic literature.

7. Machinic minds and posthuman bodies: the complexities of intimacy in three electronic works by Shelley Jackson

   In her three electronic works, Shelley Jackson exacerbates the tension between self-writing and the diffraction of subjectivity, as she engages with a more explicit autobiographic form. Shifting from hyperfiction in Patchwork Girl (1995) to a fictionalized exercise in remembering through the scrutiny of her body parts in My Body & A Wunderkammer (1997), she eventually explores a pseudo-historiographic and documentary approach of the games she used to play with her sister in The Doll Games (2001), a work closer to an online family album of sorts. The present article purports to interrogate the preservation of the intimate in a context of public self-exposure through an archival electronic medium.

9. Event and Meaning: Reading Interactive Installations in the Light of Art History

   Roberto Simanowski demonstrates in a close reading of two interactive in- stallations that they do not simply create an event as “a period of time to be lived through” (Bourriaud 15). Looking at Still Standing by Bruno Nadeau and Jason Lewis and Zachary Booth Simpson’s Mondrian, Simanowski maintains that these pieces do not only offer two different concepts of the interactors’ actions and hence body experiences; they also engage in a very difficult way with the issues of inter- and transmediality and thereby refer to the history of the avant-garde movements of the early 20th century.
