Panorama de la literatura electrónica hispánica
La relación entre la ciberliteratura y la literatura tradicional es actualmente muy compleja. A pesar del número creciente de obras digitales y del aumento de uso de Internet, la ciberliteratura tiene dificultad para atraer la atención de los lectores, de los editores y de los críticos. El público general, aunque sea usuario activo de la red, parece no interesarse por esta nueva forma narrativa que utiliza el hipertexto, los recursos multimedia y la interactividad. Ante esta situación nos preguntamos: ¿Hasta qué punto los géneros nacidos digitales heredan a la imprenta o son modalidades híbridas (transmedia, crossmedia, multimedia, mash-ups, pastiches) de los géneros triunfantes en el siglo XX (fotografía, fonógrafo, radio, cine, televisión)? Y en fin, la pregunta fundamental: ¿Puede hablarse de literatura cuando la mayoría de las obras nacidas digitales han hecho de las palabras (LITER) un elemento residual, siendo sustituidas por la NET y sus imágenes, sonidos, videos, animaciones, arte digital, diseño gráfico, etc.? En suma, ¿es ya la LiterNETura, LITERatura?

Live/Archive: Occupy MLA
More than other netprovs, Occupy MLA [OMLA] lays bare the ethical and performative capacities of the genre. Both a live performance and an enduring if volatile media artifact, OMLA leaves "data contrails": digital traces of real-time reader participation that slowly decay and become less coherent over time. This decay creates an enduring performance record that distorts the live experience of it. In this essay, the shareable, spreadable and appropriative aspects of netprov as a "born digital" live reading/writing interface are considered. The sheer volume of OMLA's tweets and its installation as time-based art create a primary text whose "primacy" is functionally impossible. Part one of the essay examines how and why OMLA's 3000-tweet archive, #OMLA hashtag, and abundant paraphrastic materials actually take readers further from the live experience rather than closer in.

I Forced a Bot to Read over 1,000 Papers from Open Access Journals and Then Asked It to Write a Paper of Its Own. Here Is the Result. Or, a Quasi-Materialist Approach to Bot-Mimicry
The article develops an approach for close reading of auto-generative writing agents (i.e. bots). It introduces the concept of bot-mimicry (a practice of writing in a bot-esque style), and argues that bot-mimicry inherently entails that reader and writer alike imagine a conceptual (fictional) bot which could have written the text. As such, it investigates the concept as a fruitful way of engaging with cultural, aesthetic and political conceptions and imaginaries surrounding bots. Furthermore, and through an example reading of the “Olive Garden tweet”, the paper develops, introduces and applies a quasi-materialist approach, where seemingly immaterial elements such as implicit conceptual bots are considered through a framework inspired by materialist media theory from the fields of software studies, media archaeology, and electronic
