1. Baby Work

   BABY WORK is the 3rd edition of Cheang's LOCKER BABY PROJECT which consist of:
   BABY PLAY (2001, NTT[ICC], Tokyo) and BABY LOVE (2005, Palais de Tokyo, Paris).
   The Locker Baby project conceived in 2001 reflects a time when bioscience is accused
   of out of control and scifi fantasia brings forward the future. Deriving from Ryu
   Murakami's noted novel Coin Locker Babies (1980) of post-war Japan , the Locker Baby
   Project further contests the mother’s heart beats that are so desired for clone babies
   born out of lockers. A fictional scenario set in 2030 - the transnational DPT (DollyPolly
   Transgency) produces and engages clone locker babies in negotiating human "Memory"
   and "Emotion”. The clone baby holds the key to retrieve the networked inter-sphere of
   ME-data embedded in a playfield of sonic imagery triggered only by human interaction.
   In BABY PLAY, an oversized baby football field with clone baby players; in BABY LOVE, a
   ride in 6 motorized fairground teacups with love song remixed by clone babies; in BABY

3. LETTERS FROM THE ARCHIVERSE

   As a programmable writing project, Letters from the Archiverse can be considered both a visual poem and an application. Its most current version was composed (and continues to be developed) with architectural modeling space software AutoCAD. Combining methods and techniques drawn from traditional lineages of concrete poetry and ―open-field‖ composition with 3D image modeling, the poem offers writers and viewers alike the opportunity to engage in the materiality of screen-based writing, while exploring new directions and theories in visual language art. In the current phase of the project, readers are able to explore and manipulate the poem on the iPad, using a commercial architectural drafting app.

6. Kvinden ved siden af

   This is the story of two women whose souls switch bodies during their surgery after a traffic accident they were both involved in. The story is told in a standalone iPad app, narrated in part by the sister of one of the women and in part through a series of documents that the sister finds or is given: the doctor's report of the surgery, emails and chat transcripts from people reacting to the soul-swapping, and various other Although the story is entirely linear, the illustrations and the feeling of opening documents on the screen make this short story well suited to the tablet reading environment. The style of writing is humorous and at times somewhat caricatured, though also raising large questions about identity and mortality.

7. Kaos

   A poem where each line is superimposed on a video of a man putting an oddly shaped box on a table and slowly unpacking it. The poem describes the box as containing chaos, bought at a shop and well packaged. The work is entirely linear, but after a few lines of poem and 10-15 seconds of video the image pauses and darkens until the reader touches the screen and thus makes the poem continue. A certain momentum is achieved simply because the reader does not know what is in the box until the end of the poem.

8. Buzz Aldrin Doesn't Know Any Better

   This poem evokes the attempt to make sense out of a conversation with a rambling street person in San Francisco, and its design and interface both contribute to that effect. Lewis breaks up the line into words clustered together in a large font size to form a word cloud. The superposition of the gently rotating words create a dense, white, unreadable mass, which only makes sense around the edges as words are able to briefly break free into a space with better contrast. But just because you can’t read a word doesn’t mean it isn’t there: touching a word on the screen makes it appear along with the rest of the words in the line, by changing the font color to purple. One word in each line is a softer shade of purple and will follow your fingertip on the surface of the touchscreen. (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)

9. Meanwhile

   "Meanwhile" begins as our young hero in dire need of a bathroom, knocks on the door of a mysterious recluse. His mansion is in fact a wonderous laboratory filled with amazing inventions: A mind reading helmet, a doomsday device and a time travel machine (although it can only go back ten minutes). Which invention will young Jimmy play with? YOU, the reader get to decide in my branchiest and most complex interactive comic to date. "Meanwhile" works via a network of tubes connecting each panel to the next. Sometimes these tubes split in two giving the readers a choice of which path they would like to follow. Sometimes these tubes even lead off the page and onto tabs sticking out from other parts of the book. Inspired by Scott Mccloud I exploded "Meanwhile" onto a 5'x5' matrix in 2004. I'm currently working on a way to bring it to the web somehow. (Source: author website) Originally published as a book. This entry refers to the 2012 iPad adaptation, which was done by Andrew Plotkin.

10. Conduit d'Aération

    Le 15 septembre 2011, le corps d'un jeune homme est découvert dans le conduit d'aération menant au siège d'une banque. Le rapport de police fait état d'une asphyxie par compression du thorax. Qui était cet homme ? Comment et pourquoi est-il tombé dans ce piège ? Tentative de braquage, vendetta, accès de folie... les interprétations divergent. D'après les journaux, il était 'intégré', avait de l'argent et des papiers en règle.

    Au bout de quelques jours d'enquête, le dossier a été classé sans suite.

    Supposons que Mohamed Ahardane soit Tunisien, qu'il soit venu en France pour ses études et se fasse des amis rapidements. Supposons qu'il retrouve une soeur, qu'il tombe amoureux.

    Supposons qu'il vive la révolution tunisienne par procuration. Supposons alors que l'Histoire le rattrape. On ne peut être loyal sans trahir.

    Conduit d'Aération est une fiction librement inspirée d'un fait divers et racontée par quatre des ses protagonistes. Leurs récits fragmentaires apportent plusieurs points de vu sans pour autant dénouer ce mystère.
