  2. The Last Performance

    Author description: The Last Performance [dot org] is a constraint-based collaborative writing, archiving and text-visualization project responding to the theme of lastness in relation to architectural forms, acts of building, a final performance, and the interruption (that becomes the promise) of community. The visual architecture of The Last Performance [dot org] is based on research into "double buildings," a phrase used here to describe spaces that have housed multiple historical identities, with a specific concern for the Hagia Sophia and its varied functions of church, mosque, and museum. The project uses architectural forms as a contextual framework for collaborative authorship. Source texts submitted to the project become raw material for a constantly evolving textual landscape.

  3. 18 Cadence

    18 Cadence is a storymaking machine where readers explore a house through a hundred years of history. Any piece of the story can be dragged and dropped onto a workspace area and repositioned, merged, and remixed, like magnetic fridge poetry for narrative. Readers can share and exchange the stories they make this way, and have created poetry, counter-narratives, collages, and many other stories and experiments. 18 Cadence was a Kirkus Reviews “Best Book App” of 2013, and received Honorable Mentions for the prestigious IGF Nuovo award and the Robert Coover Award for a Work of Electronic Literature.
