Cybertext Narratology
"Cybertext Narratology" combines Espen Aarseth's textonomy and typology of cybertexts to three advanced models of narrativity: narratology (Gerard Genette, Seymour Chatman, Gerald Prince), postmodernist fiction (Brian McHale), and the combinatorial and procedural writing(s) of OuLiPo (Marcel Benabou, Jacques Roubaud).
The basic and most important distinctions, categories and concepts derived from these approaches are systematically examined, expanded and rewritten in order to map out and include narrative possibilities and practices inherent to and emerged with literary cybertexts and digital textuality in general. The matters of tense, mood and voice are closely studied as well as those of trans- textuality, audibility, reliability and narrative situation.

In Search of Oldton
How does a town just disappear?
What does it feel like to be cut off from your roots in a digital age where people have so many tools for recording and documenting their lives?
How do those of us who grew up in a pre-digital age recover and maintain a sense of belonging that is becoming increasingly so hard to hold on to?
'In Search of Oldton' is an attempt to use other people's digital documentary in order to recapture and re-invent my own personal history.
Tim Wright will be touring the UK during 2004 in search of Oldton his lost place of birth - and uncovering along the way the possible causes of its demise and the subsequent loss of his past.
Working with groups and individuals Wright wants to build up a substantial online archive showing people taking their leave of a place or a person - a range of personal stories about saying goodbye and moving on.
Through texts, pictures, videos and oral testimony, he will build up a digital archive of fictional remembrances, tributes to numerous places and situations left behind.
And ultimately (he hopes!) his own digital story of memory and loss will emerge.

[Untitled Twitter Fiction @samplereality]
Mark Sample has disappeared from Twitter, or has he? The link above leads to an archive of all his Tweets, which reference his final tweets, ostensibly from a Dulles airport that was sealed up by FEMA, including a link to an video of him sending a message to his wife and family, that “the book is not what they think it is.” What is this book and what is the whole situation about?
This is Twitter performance writing, in which fiction blends into reality so casually, that it is able to make for compelling narratives. This is a story several years in the making.
On January 30, 2013, as he headed back home from an all day Department retreat, the got stuck on Dulles airport due to some kind of an emergency, re-encountering the mysterious figure from March 5, 2010. On January 31, 2013 his @samplereality account went 404. Gone.

Lexikonroman – einer sentimentalen Reise zum Exporteutreffen in Druden
Quote from author Andreas Okopenko: Eines unglaublich schönen Apriltages fuhr ich mit der Eisenbahn zu einem Hörspielabschluß nach Saarbrücken. Die Symptome des beginnenden Frühjahrs rührten mich, die (Arbeit und Spiel und Langeweile und Wunsch und Beziehung bergenden) Häuser in der Landschaft, die Möglichkeiten, hier und da und dort herumzuschauen, einzutreten, mitzuleben, und doch auch die Unmöglichkeit, all dieses Mögliche wirklich oder gar gleich zu tun. In der so gelösten wie aufgekratzten wie sentimentalen Stimmung dieses Vormittags entschloß ich mich, meinen ersten Roman zu schreiben: den Roman einer so seltsam als Möglichkeiten-Orgie erlebten Reise. Als Route wählte ich aber (wegen des langsameren Vorbeiziehens der Objekte, wegen der größeren Chance für das Entstehen einer Reisebefangenheit) eine Donaustrecke, als Fahrzeug ein Schiff. Einer der wichtigsten Einfälle kam fast zwanghaft: der Leser müßte Gelegenheit haben, die Möglichkeiten-Struktur der Welt nachzuspielen: in dieser oder jener Stadt auszusteigen, sich von hier oder dort aus weiterzuverzweigen oder aber auf der Donau am Hauptstrang der Handlung bleiben zu können.

Spätwinterhitze
Der erste interaktive Krimi. Ein Roman im Stil des film noir mit stimmungsvollen Animationen und Sounds auf CD-ROM. Frank Klötgen sprengt die Grenzen zwischen Buch, Comic und Computerspiel und verbindet Leseerlebnis und literarische Qualität eines atmosphärischen Krimis mit den multimedialen Möglichkeiten des Computerzeitalters. Der Leser schlüpft in die Rolle des Ich-Erzählers und steuert sich als Mitarbeiter einer Headhunter-Agentur durch den Roman. Dabei kommt er hinter die Machenschaften eines Weltkonzerns, der zuhause Politiker schmiert, Mitwisser unschädlich macht und im Ausland unter dem Schutzschild von Diktaturen menschenverachtende humangenetische Experimente betreiben lässt. Ein mysteriöser Todesfall und ein todgeglaubter Störenfried geben Rätsel auf, und der Leser wird mehr und mehr in ein bedrohliches Spiel verwickelt. Ob er da heil rauskommt, hängt nicht zuletzt von seinem kriminalistischen Gespür ab...

The City
Began to rise gradually in the years 1997 - 1999 as a fictional girls homepage. It is a multimedia novella consisting of 42 Website pages, text, images, animations and sounds. Text is in response to the time I spent heavily on chat (since 1995) and the possibility of an interesting experience any selection of their identity, which allows chat. Today, Czech chat is not what was at the time, but the experience still offers a challenge to reality ... [Taken from official website http://www.bankova.cz/marketa/prace/work.html ]

@frodegrytten (microfictions on Twitter)
Hver dag fra 2011-2013 posted Frode Grytten svært korte noveller på 140 tegn til Twitter. Ofte brukes journalistiske konvensjoner, som å angi alder på personene i parantes, og nesten alltid er tematikken trist.
