  3. ELMCIP Seminar on Digital Poetics and the Present

    This seminar is one of the ELMCIP events and is organised by Yra van Dijk at the University of Amsterdam.

    In recent years, both criticism and practice of digital literature have created a theoretical basis for the approach of the new artform. Ideas have been brought forward on the historical, contextual and institutional embedding of digital literature. Critics have proposed various ways to analyze the hybrid that digital literature is and have emphasised the necessity of a ‘media-specific analysis’. Now the time has come to look closer at techniques and effects of digital literary works, and at the contemporary contexts in which they are created. Digital literature does not operate in isolation: it is in all respects a contemporary artform. The seminar focusses on this question of digital ‘poetics’, understood as the question to the nature and the value of the work, both in criticism as in practice itself.

    In addition to the scholarly presentations during the days, there are evening performance events.

  5. Archiving Events and Works in the ELMCIP Electronic Literature Knowledge Base

    This half day workshop will be focused on the preservation and archiving of Electronic Literature Organization events and conferences. Scott Rettberg has been asked by the ELO board to establish a standing committee of ELO members that will be focused on documenting and archiving current and past ELO events. This workshop will be focused both on the future scope and projects of that committee and on the hands-on documentation of ELO conferences in the ELMCIP Electronic Literature Knowledge Base. We will consider questions including:

    * What are the best practices related to archiving for ELO conference organizers?
    * Should relationships be established with one or more libraries or archives to preserve data and ephemera from ELO conferences?
    * How should we best go about gathering ELO archives materials and preserving them?
    * How can we archive events using the platform of the ELMCIP Electronic Literature Knowledge Base?
