1. David Wiesner

   David Wiesner is one of the best-loved and most highly acclaimed picture book creators in the world. His books have been translated into more than a dozen languages and have won numerous awards in the United States and abroad. Three of the picture books he both wrote and illustrated became instant classics when they won the prestigious Caldecott Medal: Tuesday in 1992, The Three Pigs in 2002, and Flotsam in 2007, making him only the second person in the award's long history to have won three times. He has also received three Caldecott Honors, for Free Fall, Sector 7, and Mr. Wuffles!.

   Wiesner grew up in suburban New Jersey, known to his classmates as "the kid who could draw." He went on to become a student at the Rhode Island School of Design, where he was able to commit himself to the full-time study of art and to explore further his passion for visual storytelling. He soon discovered that picture books were the perfect vehicle for his work.

6. Literatura chilena en digital: Mapas, estéticas y conceptualizaciones

   En el presente artículo se busca analizar una experiencia estética vinculada a lo digital, que tiene como principales componentes la posibilidad de interactuar, participar y manipular las obras creadas en este formato. Con tal fin, se presentará un mapa de la literatura digital en Chile, para luego profundizar en el análisis de dos aspectos que permiten caracterizar una estética de lo digital: la hipertextualidad y el hackeo cultural. A partir de estos elementos y tomando en cuenta que la literatura digital es aquella creada para ser leída en la pantalla de un dispositivo electrónico, se analizan el poema A veces cubierto por las aguas de Carlos Cociña y el poemario Clickable poem@s de Luis Correa-Díaz. Estas obras nos permiten preguntarnos por el estatus de la literatura y la poesía en la era digital, vinculadas a una experiencia estética que pone énfasis en la intervención y el deseo de participación.
