1. The Famous Sound of Absolute Wreaders

   A project by Johannes Auer for the ORF Kunstradio, Vienna. With: Reinhard Doehl, Sylvia Egger, Oliver Gassner, Martina Kieninger, Beat Suter und René Bauer Performer: Christiane Maschajechi, Stuttgart Peter Gorges, Stuttgart
   6 net authors generate a text on the others' web projects. 2 narrators/announcers perform the texts in form of a collage, remix, dialogue and (white) noise. 6 net authors form a new netart projects using the texts of the others. The radio version of this net project consists of four parts which add up to a radio play that represents different grades of (human) control: Part 1 is a kind of hand-made collage of the complete written material and, thus, is controlled "by human". For Part 2, the text modules of this collage were re-assembled by the computer (randomly "generated") - human control was abandoned. In Part 3, the announcers comment on this computer-generated collage - bringing human control back in (but at the same time infiltrating the meaning of authorship). In Part 4, finally, the announcers themselves lose control due to t heir being under the influence of alcohol ...

3. Worldwatchers

   Weit oben in einem Hochsicherheits-Kontroll-Tower sitzen die Worldwatchers. Tag aus, Tag ein beobachten sie die Welt durch tausende von Webcams auf der Suche nach Unregelmäßigkeiten. So lautet ihr Auftrag. Das glauben zumindest die Worldwatchers. Sicher sind sie indes nicht. Seit vielen Generationen leben sie, von der Welt vergessen, in dieser Forschungssiedlung an unbestimmtem Ort. Während dieser Zeit ging das genaue Wissen über den Auftrag und seine Begründung verloren. Den Worldwatchers erscheint das aber normal. Sie kennen es nicht anders. Unverdrossen suchen sie nach neuen Webcams und beschreiben täglich die gesichteten Unregelmäßigkeiten im Logbuch - dem Weblog der Worldwatchers. Nicht selten verirren sich in diese Aufzeichnungen auch Träume, Wünsche, Gerüchte aus der Siedlung und die frei erfundenen Geschichten der Weltbeobachter. Aber wer kann ihnen das schon nachweisen.

4. Oratorio - Encantação pelo Rio

   "ORATORIO – Encantação pelo Rio" was conceived in 2002 and made in 2003, as a project rewarded in the IV Sergio Motta Cultural Prize. It's a kind of "suite of poems" about Rio de Janeiro (the subtitle "Incantation by Rio" makes a refference to Khlebnikov's "Incantation by Laugh", wonderfuly translated by Haroldo de Campos). The work's start point was a set of 3 "conventional" poems (perhaps the first that I made without a "visual" intention) inspired by 3 locations in Rio: Rocinha (one of its biggest "favela"), the Corcovado (Christ) and the Sambadrome. Then I made a list of 64 rivers and mountains of the city, combining them in verses, playing with the "coincidence" that in Portuguese: "river" and "I laugh" / "mountain" and "I die" have the same writing form: rio / morro. It was a period when violence was specially alarming in the city.

5. Webessay

   What happens with an essay when it abandons the set form of book pages, and steps out into the internet's virtual space? Webessay is an invitation into a digital meta-essay: an enormous text-tapestry of quotations, photos, rt and music produced from the two essayists associations and personal library, and arranged into four metaphorical trips: the scientific expedition, the internal journey, the big city holiday, and space tourism. The travelers move past over fifty different stops in all, and are sketched out with the help of many hundreds of airmail-striped envelopes. The program is organized so that the traveler can follow the predetermined routes' tracks, or take a spontaneous trip with the help of self-selected links. You can search in the depths, surf freely away in a labyrinth of hypertexts, or you can choose to be led by the webessay's composition. You're guaranteed to get lost, and find something you weren't expecting.

8. 3 Proposals for Bottle Imps

   This suite of three exquisitely paced narrative poems tell stories labelled as allegories of “Genius,” “Ambition,” and “Envy” yet structured as instructions for the design of bottle imps. <—-(This would be the place where I would normally place a link to a resource, but it is unnecessary for this work because Poundstone has put together a meticulously researched and insightful FAQ page.) In this FAQ page, he makes a case for these automata as fitting metaphors for electronic literature, because they are life-like creatures that are animated by mechanisms to produce a looping behavior on a scheduled performance. Indeed, these poems enact the metaphor very well as looping Flash animations used to deliver a narrative through tactical portioning and formatting of a prose text into lines, stanzas, and other visual organizational structures and carefully scheduled delivery of each portion. The careful attention to line structure elevates the prosaic language to poetry, and its scheduled presentation to e-poetry. (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)

9. Nine: Puzzling through Several Lives

   This poem is mapped onto a nine tile sliding puzzle, the kind that traditionally has a single image that one can scramble or unscramble. The interface for this is the same, but Lewis throws a curve ball in this piece: every time the reader moves a tile— perhaps with the hope of completing the image— the image changes. One set of images is a photograph of Lewis himself, and another is a kind of map, suggesting that if we could complete it, we’d see him or where he’s from. But identity isn’t that simple to put together, particularly in the case of someone with such a diverse ethnic background as Lewis. Keep this idea in mind as you read the text as you attempt to complete the puzzle— will you get closure from this piece by completing the puzzle or is this denied much like easy answers about identity are to Lewis?

10. Conversation

    This suite of three sound poems (or three-part poem) were inspired by Glenn Gould and his experiments with musique concrète. Nelson uses audio recordings of interviews on three topics— injuries, products, and robots— and places them on an interface that allows you to mix 8 clips at different volume levels and audio panning (sending signal to the left or right speakers). This can be used to listen to a single voice or place multiple voices in conversation, adjusting their virtual proximity (volume) and relative position in order to construct a sense of space in which people discuss a topic. Each interface is visually and thematically designed with a different background images, slider knobs, and an animated morphed image. The image above is from “Injury Analysis” and the following two are from “Product Sermon” and “Robot Party.”
