  4. Opuscula

    "Opuscula" is a different interactive electronic poem which you may explore in several ways. Inside the poem you will find four different poems with various nodes of connections to each other: An interactive poem, a ParaPoem, and two poems to be read in linear form. The interactive Poem is an animated sequence of moving and floating words illustrated by graphical effects on the screen. You as the reader will interact with the poem, by clicking on words as they appear on the screen through your reading. When you click these words and lines, random text lines conceptually connected to the word/line you clicked will be sent to create your own poem, the ParaPoem, in a transparent field at the bottom of the screen. These lines are also links which (dependent on the meaning of the line) randomly may take you to a stanza belonging to one of the two linear poems (behind the interactive and the ParaPoem's interface), to a quote, or to a word definition which all will give new meaning to the link you clicked and the poems you read. The Parapoem will be different each time you create it and can be read alone, or as a part of the other poems.

  5. Бледное пламя (Pale Fire)

    В романе "Бледное пламя" соединились воедино набоковские интересы и пристрастия различных эпох. С одной стороны, как и "Под знаком незаконнорожденных", "Бледное пламя" вобрало в себя осколки последнего незавершенного русскоязычного романа "Solus Rex". С другой, избранная сложная наукообразная форма: предисловие комментатора Чарльза Кинбота, поэма из 999 строк, авторство которой, по-видимому, принадлежит Джону Шейду, пространный комментарий и указатель, составленные опять-таки Кинботом, — напоминает о рождавшемся в те годы масштабном труде Набокова -- комментированном издании "Евгения Онегина", включавшем в свой состав предисловие, текст перевода, комментарии, указатель и факсимильную версию первой прижизненной публикации пушкинского романа. (из А.Люксембург, С.Ильин. Комментарий к роману "Бледное пламя")

  6. The Body Politic

    In this multimedia hypertext poem, Ley foregrounds some ways in which the body is constructed and politicized. Using the HTML select tag as a way to structure lines of verse by hiding them under the first line of the stanza, she reinforces the metaphor of surface and depth as text and subtext. The pull-down menu produced by this tag carries a little functional baggage, that one is to choose an item from the list, which becomes something to be acted upon, such as information on a form or a link to another document. In this piece the reader can only select a line, which remains juxtaposed to the title, but nothing else happens. Is Ley highlighting the passivity of simply reading the text about women’s bodies and cruelty to animals in the cosmetics and food industries, if not accompanied by political action? On several pages she provides links to PETA inviting readers to take that extra step and get involved, rather than just enjoy the surface of things.
