  5. Intermission

    Intermission is a performative redadaction of the poetics of cinema. The performance and media platform utilizes René Clair’s short film Entr’acte (1924, a collaboration with Picabia and Erik Satie) as a starting point, reimagining cinema as if the Dadaist vision for the medium had become the prevalent form.

  6. remixthebook

    A model of contemporary remixing and a groundbreaking reflection on digital media. Digital technology has transformed contemporary culture. New social media, hyperlinks, and cut-and-paste techniques have changed the way we write. E-books, which allow us to carry entire libraries with us, are bringing new browsing and reading habits. Digital editing and other on-the-fly postproduction processes have altered how we make music, films, and visual art. A key rhetorical trope employed in all aspects of digital media is the remix, the creation of innovative new works of visual, literary, and performance art through the mashup. In remixthebook, Mark Amerika explores the mashup as a defining cultural activity in the digital age. A pioneering media artist and acclaimed cultural theorist, Amerika offers a series of philosophical essays that trace the art of the remix to previous forms of avant-garde and modernist art through mashups of deftly sampled phrases and ideas from a wide range of visual artists, poets, novelists, musicians, comedians, and philosophers—among them Alfred North Whitehead, Guy Debord, William S. Burroughs, Kathy Acker, and Allen Ginsberg.

  9. How Am I Not Myself

    With Jason Huff's "How Am I Not Myself?" we have a play on biography and the refraction of the self as replicated within a Wikipedia entry by workers from Amazon's Mechanical Turk. As Huff tells us, this piece "aggregates information about all the Jason Huffs on the Internet [and] acts as an open-source platform for identity remix." That is, as long as Wikipedia doesn't find out about it.

  10. Gorge

    A gorge is a steep-sided canyon, a passage, a gullet. To gorge is to stuff with food, to devour greedily. Gorge is a poetry generator, a never-ending tract spewing verse approximations, poetic paroxysms on food, consumption, decadence and desire.

    The source code for Gorge is a hack of Montfort’s elegant poetry generator Taroko Gorge.
