4. Artemídia e Cultura Digital

   Artemídia e Cultura Digital, de Artur Matuck e Jorge Luiz Antonio inaugura a coleção homônima que a Musa Editora lança ao mesmo tempo que o livro, divisão da Biblioteca Aula (abriga as diversas coleções da Musa), “Artemídia e Cultura Digital”, dirigida por Artur Matuck e amparada por um Conselho Editorial de notáveis que nos desvendará o novo de toda parte pela sugestão de autores e obras que darão continuidades às publicações. O livro reúne os textos produzidos no simpósio Acta Media III – Simpósio Internacional de Artemídia e Cultura Digital, que ocorreu não apenas no espaço físico e no tempo restrito das palestras e subsequentes debates, mas também nos domínios virtuais e nos tempos diferenciados de interlocução do ciberespaço. As palestras foram ministradas no auditório do MAC-USP, de setembro a dezembro de 2004, mas o processo virtual estendeu-se até março de 2005. A organização em livro, já prevista, ocorreu posteriormente e sua edição incorporou novos atores, com relevância no trabalho de design, tomando a cara gráfica do livro que ora lançamos.

6. Grand Text Auto Exhibition at the Krannert Art Museum

   Many blogs have spawned books over the last few years, but grandtextauto.org is the first to become an art exhibition. This blog about computer mediated and computer generated works of many forms—including net.art, hypertext fiction, and computer games—is collaboratively written by Mary Flanagan, Michael Mateas, Nick Montfort, Scott Rettberg, Andrew Stern, and Noah Wardrip-Fruin. In this exhibition, the bloggers put their ideas into practice by displaying a variety of cutting edge works of digital art of their own creation.

7. Notes on N. Katherine Hayles: Literature and the Literary: Why Electronic Literature is Key to Their Future

   Kate Hayles‘ keynote here at The Future of Electronic Literature (ELO2007)  discusses why literature departments and programs should and in fact need to incorporate electronic literature in their curriculum. Here are my notes from her talk.

   There are three ways of integrating e-lit in universities:
   1. A department of media arts – film people, computer people, literary people.
   2. An interdisciplinary program where students from different departments come together.
   3. Depts of English or other literatures that introduce electronic literature as a component of their faculty lines, curriculum etc. Such a dept is often hard to convince of the importance of e-lit in the general study of literature.

   The development of literary studies since mid-twentieth century has posed a number of challenges to literary scholars: cultural studies, ethnic studies, post-colonial studies, diaspora studies. Each of those has placed pressure on the dept and changed the kind of questions that literary studies must ask. E.g. what does it mean to write literature in English? (Rather than just in Britain or the US)

8. Cyborg Tactics and Perilous Hermeneutics in Lexia to Perplexia Shifts in materiality across space.

   Cyborg Tactics and Perilous Hermeneutics in Lexia to Perplexia Shifts in materiality across space¬—from monitor to cell phone screen, from private bedroom to public bus—alter experience and sway meaning. But time also entails an expectation of change that sometimes never comes: works of electronic literature often go without the steady updates to security, appearance, and functionality that corporate software enjoys, turning into strange ruins that, if not broken, carry that possibility. Eight years after the publication of Katherine Hayles’s Writing Machines, my paper returns to one of the book’s case studies, Talan Memmott’s Lexia to Perplexia, with the goal of investigating the effects of the passing years on the hermeneutics instilled in the user by the text. Focusing on the instability that time and software evolutions have sown, I argue that in this uncertain environment, the recourse of the user is a heightened emphasis on investigation, experimentation, and attempted recovery. With these motivations in mind, I turn to various palimpsests in the text, features of Lexia that straddle the divide between the literary technique and the glitch.

9. Reclaiming the 'Golden Age': The Second Person in Digital Fiction

   Since the demise of the 'Golden Age' of literary hypertext (Coover 1999) and the theoretical debates surrounding online and offline electronic literature that followed in its wake, the study of digital fiction in particular has undergone a significant paradigm shift. Recent research has moved from a 'first-wave' of pure theoretical debate to a 'second-wave' of close stylistic and semiotic analysis. While the theoretical intricacies of second-wave digital fiction theory have been well debated (e.g. Ciccoricco 2007, Ensslin 2007, Ensslin and Bell 2007, Bell 2010 forthcoming), the discipline and practice of close-reading digital fiction require a more systematic engagement and understanding than offered by previous scholarship.

10. E-lit context as Records Continuum: the “lost” Michael Joyce’s Afternoon Italian edition and the archival perspective

    Devoted to the study and retrieval of those artifacts of the past for which a disruption in the continuity of preservation occurred, archaeological sciences operate with – and against – historical and cultural fractures. Likewise, computer forensics provides assistance whenever a need to recover data in the event of a hardware or software failure occurs. The textual shifting from page to screen experienced in the past twenty years represented both a cultural fracture (a call for paradigmatic changes in preservation which archival sciences themselves were not prepared for) and an opportunity to test computer forensics practices on text-based digital artifacts (software and hardware failures being named, in this case, “obsolescence”). Our paper draws attention to the fact that both digital archaeology and computer forensics, however, no matter how useful in shaping the current preservation practices and methodologies adopted by scholarly communities operating in the digital field, cannot replace or do without the extensive scholarship developed in disciplines that have traditionally dealt with textual preservation in situations of cultural continuity.
