3. Affiliations - Remix and Intervene: Computing Sound and Visual Poetry

   In  this  exhibit,  sound  is  represented  as  an  overarching  medium  connecting  the  artworks displayed. Visitors of the “Affiliations” exhibit will find poetic works that radically explore language and sound. For the curators, sound is one of the fundamental aspects, if not the core, of experimental and digital poetics. Yet, as some writers  and  critics  have  pointed  out  - especially  Chris  Funkhouser,  Hazel  Smith,  and John Barber - sound has not been sufficiently highlighted as a fundamental trait of electronic literature.

   The “Affiliations” exhibit presents works that embrace appropriation and remix of older and contemporary pieces - be they merely formalist or politically engaged - as pervasive creative methods in experimental poetics. Furthermore, it suggests that  electronic  literature  can  be  seen  as  a  heterogeneous  field  of  self-reflexive experimentation with the medium, language, sound, code, and space.

4. Does Interpretation Have a Future? Hermeneutics in Times of Big Data

   In this workshop, we seek to provide possible answers to the question: what does the replacement of writing by code mean for the future of reading and interpretation? With increasing reliance on algorithms and big data, does interpretation even have a future? What constitutes reading today, and what could hermeneutics look like in a digital age? Hermeneutics traditionally refers to the method and study of textual interpretation. Modern hermeneutics has its origin in textual exegesis, the interpretation of the Old Testament. It revolves around building bridges—between the present and the past, the familiar and the strange. In a time of post-truth, filter bubbles, and alternative facts, such perspectives are worth remembering and reiterating.

5. La palabra en las periferias de la tecnología

   La aparición de nuevas tecnologías y su crecimiento exponencial desde hace varias décadas ha cambiado nuestra manera de entender el conocimiento. Aunque ya es un tema que forma parte del background contemporáneo, no está de más recordar que la cultura digital y las posibilidades de internet han supuesto un cambio radical, solo comparable, según Alejandro Baricco, a la revolución de la imprenta. La incorporación de la red y de los recursos transmedia al entorno literario está propiciando nuevas poéticas; nuevas formas de textualidad que, según Joan-Elies Adell, desbordan el libro y convierten el ordenador o cualquier dispositivo móvil en el espacio natural de la obra. Hipertexto, interacción, videojuego… La esencia misma de la literatura está mutando. Escritores que piensan la palabra de forma conjunta al código HTML, a la geolocalización, al processing u otras herramientas de programación. Con sus creaciones vienen a expulsarnos de nuestras áreas de confort literario. Hablamos de trabajos pensados para la red, ese nuevo ágora. Hablamos de obras hipermedia que, frente a la oralidad o la tradición impresa, investigan dentro de lo que Ernesto Zapata define como electronalidad.
