Snapchat elit
Can a snapchat story also be electronic literature? I’m fourteen years old and I think so. Micro-video sharing apps constitute new ways to share our lives and new ways to circulate fiction, documentary works and poetry. The storytelling itself may be linear, but these are born-digital, aphoristic, networked and experimental. A snapchat story can selectively document a day, but it can also force a fictional piece into a highly constrained form. Finally, Snapchat is built on the idea of ephemerality—a Snapchat story is designed to vanish in 24 hours. For the Festival I propose one of two things—either a snapchat story captured on video that can be shared via computer or phone or, a true Snapchat story, available only for a 24 hour period during the Festival.

Ten
Ten is an electronic literature piece emerges organically from my very digital life as a ten-year-old. Every day I make a lot digital art and interventions - from simple selfies to more complicated stories and most are about presenting myself as a girl who is ten or imagining who I want to be. some are about conforming to how others think i should be... or how I hope they see me. My friends and I exchange and circulate our representations every day... like a networked memoir. For the ELO, Ten will be a carefully curated collection 365 small digital moments from among thousands, set up on a computer using a simple calendar interface. You can select a date and you’ll see a photo or short video, a musical.ly, snapchat photo, an Instagram picture or a storify. To me it’s like a time capsule digital memoir and on my 11th birthday I will do a one minute video about all the things I learned being ten and making these things and sharing them and about this being my world. And advice I would give a ten year old.
