1. Condors' polyphony and jawed water-lines catapulted out: Gnoetry and Its Place in Text Processing's History

   As chronicled on the “Beard of Bees” website, authors involved with Gnoetry, “an on-going experiment in human/computer collaborative poetry composition”, have collectively engaged with digital textual processing for more than a decade (see http://beardofbees.com/gnoetry.html and also http://gnoetrydaily.wordpress.com/). In 2011, the group published their first anthology, Gnoetry Daily, Vol. 1, a 52 page collection of verse spun with programs named Gnoetry, charNG, Infinite Monkeys, ePoGeeS, welatanschauung, and JanusNode, with accompanying commentary by Eric Elshtain, eRoGK7, Matthew, edde addad, nathanielksmith, and DaveTolkacz.

2. Sound Rites: Relationships Between Words and Sound in New Media Writing

   While discussion of the relationship of image and word has been prominent in the discourses
   surrounding new media writing, the role of sound is rarely addressed in this context, even
   though words are sounds and sounds are a major component of multimedia. This paper
   explores possibilities for new theoretical frameworks in this area, drawing on musico-literary
   discourse, intermedia theory and inter-cultural theory, and using ideas about semiotic and cultural exchange as a basis.

7. Galatea’s Riposte: The Reception and Receptacle of Interactive Fiction

   When I open the Spatterlight application to access “Galatea,” one of Emily Short’s many fabulous
   pieces of interactive fiction, a supple string of text hails me, flirts with me, and stops just short of
   calling me by name. The more I read, the more I learn about the source of the text itself, Galatea.
   “She” is a simple yet oddly convincing AI, one who is as reactive as she is acted upon, whose words
   emerge in response to my own, and whose short temper has shut down our collective story more
   times than I can count. As startling as her salutations initially seemed and as accustomed to her
   spurning me as I have become, I remain intrigued by Galatea’s overt and shameless invocation of her reader—in this case, me.

9. Cicatrix: Pain, Sex, and Dying in E-Literature

   This panel will deal with the relationship between extreme affect and electronic literature: How are pain, sex, and death _embodied_ in E-lit, virtual worlds, and textuality so that the abstract, for the reader, performer, or user, becomes empathetically embodied within hir? In other words, how can the skipping/skimming, which characterize the Net, be delayed, so that an actuality of politics and the body emerges? This panel will explore this and related issues.

10. Vectors, Scalar, and Magic: Emerging Platforms for E-lit Scholarship

    Emerging media forms do not merely excite artists; they also inspire critics to develop innovative scholarly works. For over seven years, the USC-based Vectors Journal has promoted webbased scholarship by developing and publishing projects that utilize experimental design interfaces, data structures, and digital authoring tools. In this presentation, Vectors’ Creative Director Erik Loyer, Info Design Director Craig Dietrich, and 2011 Fellow Mark Marino will present glimpses of critical works that use innovative platforms to explore their material. Loyer will begin with a presentation that looks at several of his collaborations with scholars to create the dynamic multimodal works of Vectors. Dietrich will follow with a look at the new platform Scalar, a publishing platform based on Vectors’ workflows and Semantic Web technology. Dietrich will also detail Magic, an experimental design fork of Scalar centered on the presentation of software code. Marino will then present his Scalar piece based on the Magic fork which analyzes a work of electronic literature, the Transborder Immigrant Tool, including annotations of the tool’s code.
