  2. Elogio del texto digital. Claves para interpretar el cambio de paradigma

    Las mismas personas que, en el pasado sentimos un cierto rechazo hacia la idea de leer en una
    pantalla y alejarnos del romanticismo del libro, hemos terminado sucumbiendo en la tentación
    de comprarnos un libro electrónico. En la actualidad, estamos presenciando un momento decisivo
    en que la memoria documental de la humanidad está siendo transferida del papel a un
    nuevo formato constituido por las nuevas tecnologías de la información y la comunicación: el
    formato digital. Como lo defne Javier Celaya en el prólogo, Elogio del texto digital (2012) de
    José Manuel Lucía Megías, pretende ser un “quitamiedos” para todos aquellos que ven el texto
    en formato digital como una amenaza contra el libro impreso.
    Megías refexiona acerca del famoso debate, recurrente en conferencias y mesas redondas,
    sobre si el libro electrónico sustituirá por completo al impreso y si habrá consecuencias catas -
    trófcas en los derechos de autor y la distribución y publicación de los libros. Es común
    encontrar intelectuales que desprecian el acto de la lectura en una pantalla o que piensan que la

  3. Re-construyendo la novela para un nuevo milenio. Postestructuralismo, discurso, lectura, autoría e hipertextualidad ante los nuevos caminos de la novela

    El postestructuralismo como conjunto de ideas teóricas de pensamiento ha forjado algunas creaciones novelísticas a lo largo de los últimos cuarenta años de tal forma que la novela en su conjunto, si bien paso a paso, está modificando su anterior estructura lineal, aunque el cambio no se haya generalizado aún, salvo en la literatura hipertextual propiamente dicha, gracias a la difusión y experimentación de las nuevas tecnologías. Me gustaría repasar la importancia que algunos de los principios del postestructuralismo han tenido sobre la estructura de tres novelas diferentes de autores, países, literaturas y décadas distintas, como ejemplos clave de una evolución.

  5. Sleepless in Seattle

    First, IN.S.OMNIA operates from the premise that the domain of literature as such is no longer in synch with cultural experience in contemporary America. Rather than “look for ‘the next big thing’ in literature,” IN.S.OMNIA asks, “What if the next big thing already surrounds us, embedded in small gestures we perform every day? What if the next big thing is the realization that we have changed the way we use culture - remapping, rewiring, renetworking the same old pool of elements in new ways, adding to them furtive scribbles, seeking pleasures without naming them?

  6. Cyberinthian Ways

    Linda Brigham hypercontextualizes contemporary philosophy.

    Although a hard-copy book and a hypertext essay hardly present us with apples and oranges, this particular pair troubles the work of comparison. This trouble is not simply a matter of form. Content-wise as well, Arkady Plotnitsky’s interdisciplinary exploration of poststructural metaphysics (or “meta-physics”) and David Kolb’s meditation on the textuality of philosophy relate to each other in a fashion at once too intimate and divergent. Like Blake’s Clod and Pebble from the Songs of Experience, they are contraries, or, to pick up the theme, “complementary.” As Blake would insist, though, it is through such contraries that progress happens.

  7. Writing the Paradigm

    An overview of Gregory Ulmer’s thought by Victor Vitanza.

    1. How do we not know we think, yet think?

    Gregory Ulmer (a.k.a. ‘Glue’) has been for some time developing a theory of invention that would be appropriate and productive for those cultural theorists who have an interest in electronic media. (Invention, classically defined in oral and print culture, is the art of recalling and discovering what it is that one would think or say about a given subject. In electronic culture, invention takes on new ramifications). In his Applied Grammatology (1985), Ulmer moves from Derridean deconstruction (a mode of analysis that concentrates on inventive reading) to grammatology (a mode of composition that concentrates on inventive writing); that is, he moves towards exploring “the nondiscursive levels - images and puns, or models and homophones - as an alternative mode of composition and thought applicable to academic work, or rather, play.

  8. HYPER-LEX: A Technographical Dictionary

    Paul Harris hybridizes the terms of hypertextual discourse and takes it to a higher power.

    The spirit or at least pervasive desire of our age revolves around a sort of transparency: a desire to project ourselves as a surface of permeable traces, to exfoliate, let the inside become the outside, to become fully visible like the meat and bones of a Cronenberg character, while remaining invisible like the little hacker ghost (Turing’s Demon?) that tracks text in the Random Access Memory banks of the machine onto whose screen we splash words. In large part, the attractive force that transparency exerts is an effect of media culture; simultaneously, however, transparency marks a limit of im-mediacy - an unmediated, collapsed sensation where we can see the neurophysiology of our brains or the shapes of and linkages among our words. This is an immediacy of the sensory that never shades into the tactile - it is rather the immediacy of sensing the medium itself, of clicking tracks around the computer screen or dredging up hidden treasures on the Netscape of our lives.

  9. A Gathering of Threads

    The culmination of ebr version 2.0 (an html- and java-based Web production), the spring 1999 “gathering of threads” introduced an important component into the journal design: the thREAD that actively conducts readers among affiliated essays.
