4. Frontiers of Electronic Literature

   Mainstream and avant-garde poets and fiction writers have been exploring the literary potential of the computer for decades, creating work that goes far beyond today's e-books. The creators of electronic literature have developed new interface methods, new techniques for collaboration, and new ways of linking language, computing, and other media elements. How has electronic literature influenced other media, including the Web and the book? What are the implications of having literary projects in the digital sphere alongside other forms of communication and art?

6. Narrative (Pre)Occupations: Self-Surveillance, Participation, and Public Space

   Under consumer culture, self-surveillance—the act of submitting your own data to corporate interests like Amazon, TiVo or Facebook—becomes a revolutionary gesture of participation (Andrejevic 15)…or so corporate interests would have us believe. With the advent of social media, we now log our own data in the service of multinationals as we
   seemingly embrace the arrival of a technological Big Brother. Several digital media artists, however, have turned the tables or, more exactly, the camera on themselves by using digital media and self-surveillance as a means of creating new digital narratives.

8. Documenting Your Work: A Workshop on Using the ELMCIP Knowledge Base for Authors, Critics, and Teachers of Electronic Literature

   The ELMCIP Electronic Literature Knowledge Base (http://elmcip.net/knowledgebase) is an open-access research database for documenting information about authors, works of electronic literature, critical writing that references those works, publishers, organizations, events, and teaching resources about e-lit. We propose a hands-on workshop session, ideally two hours in length, to be held in a computer lab with a networked computer available for each participant. The workshop will include a presentation of how authors, scholars, and teachers can use the Knowledge Base for professional purposes, to bring readers to their work, to support their research, and to develop their courses. Contributor accounts will be created for all workshop attendees, and the bulk of the session will be devoted to documenting participant’s work in the Knowledge Base itself, actively creating new records. We will focus in particular on documenting works and papers which have been presented at the ELO conferences.

9. Why ‘But is it e-lit?’ Is a Ridiculous Question: The Case for Online Journals as Organic, Evolving Works of Digital Literature

   Cordite Poetry Review, an Australian journal of poetry and poetics, was founded in 1997 as a print journal but since 2001 has appeared only online. Over the last ten years, as the magazine has grown in size and reach, the question of Cordite’s status as a journal has become more vexed. Can it be regarded as a ‘proper’ literary journal, in the way that other, offline journals are? Is it truly electronic, given the relative absence of works on the site that explore the possibilities of the online space? Or are these merely ridiculous questions, the posing of which reflects a pre-online hierarchy of prestige?

10. Oltre il lineare: la letteratura elettronica

    Questo lavoro è volto ad analizzare il tema della letteratura elettronica e a individuarne i legami con la letteratura postmoderna e l'opera dello scrittore e saggista Italo Calvino. Le teorie sulla narrativa combinatoria sono un inevitabile punto di partenza per molti degli scrittori che si sono dedicati a questo genere di composizioni. L'utilizzo del computer come mezzo per la produzione scritta presenta un grande potenziale di resa artistica e letteraria, e il lavoro di associazioni come ELO ed ELMCIP è di notevole importanza per la diffusione di nuove idee e nuove tecniche di scrittura.

    È stata ormai dimenticata "Ra-Dio", l'opera ipertestuale di Lorenzo Miglioli pubblicata vent'anni fa: anticipatore dell'estetica cannibale, il giovane scrittore partecipò al convegno "Ricercare" del 1993, organizzato da Nanni Balestrini e Renato Barilli. Il pubblico letterario non era però ancora pronto ad accoglierlo: è importante che lavori di questo tipo trovino il loro spazio all'interno della critica letteraria e vengano considerati a tutti gli effetti parte del nostro patrimonio artistico e culturale.
