1. Delimited Meshings: a White Paper

   This hypertext work of poetry, theory, and narrative is exquisitely programmed in HTML 3.2 using JavaScript from 12 years ago, which means that it is currently best read in Internet Explorer, which retains its responsive elements. This DHTML piece uses JavaScript to modify the Document Object Model (DOM), which means that the document is the same, but once you activate certain parts of it, its rendering becomes modified with the addition of static or kinetic elements.

   Memmott uses it in this poem to create layers of visual and textual information that is revealed as the reader interacts with different prompts. For example, the section titled “Sorts” allows for the reader to reveal texts by clicking on different parts of the image, seen below.

2. Moment

   This is a generative poem you can visit for years and continue to find things to surprise and delight. It is structured around a text— aptly named as “a strand” (as in a fiber or rope made of letters or characters)— which is shaped by “aspects,” which are programmed structures that shape and transform the strands through color, animation, scheduling, formatting, and other transformations possible in DHTML. Considering there are 10 “strands” (plus a “user-fed strand”) each of which can be shaped by 36 different “aspects,” each of which can have multiple controls and toggles, you don’t have to do the math to realize that this is a work of staggering generative possibilities. Combined with a few randomization and combinatorial touches, this is a work that will always welcome you with fresh moments, inviting you to play with its structures.

3. ExtraPhysical Worlds

   Publié en 2001 par Bluescreen, le pseudonyme du créateur du programme, ExtraPhysicalWorld est un programme qui se trouve sur le CD alire12, la douzième publication d’une revue inspirée par une coopératif d’auteurs, y compris Phillipe Bootz. Ce collectif qui a inspiré BlueScreen s’appelait L.A.I.R.E, (Lecture Art Innovation Recherche Écriture) et a été créé en octobre 1988. Pourtant, Bluescreen a fait partie d'un autre collectif qui s'appelait Transitoire Observable, créé en 2003. C’est dans les fichiers du CD-ROM que l’on trouve le « site » d’ExtraPhysicalWorld (Les mondes extra-physiques). Normalement, on lançait le site en y accédant sur internet. Cependant, en septembre 2014, le site d’ExtraPhysicalWorld ne marche plus. Donc, il a fallu accéder au programme via les fichiers dans le CD d’alire12. En tout cas, le programme d’ExtraPhysicalWorld se caractérise par quelques menus qui fournissent des renseignements et des animations variés. L’entrée Écrits.txt du menu comprend un article écrit par Bluescreen en 2001 sur la conceptualisation du monde extra-physique.
