3. Post Modern Object

   Post Modern Object attempts to explore the idea of the post modern utilizing technology which has been built and modeled in the wake of post modernity. Due the form in which it was conceived, the web has capabilities uniquely suited to presenting material on the subject. "Objective: Towards a new experience: Not a critical work, not a music video, not a novel, not a video game, but something from all. Utilizing multiple and ever more complex interfaces (ways of accessing the information), the user is invited to experience the chosen selections. Not only has the author died, but so has the author's pattern: What remains? A collection of narrative morphemes, quotations, images (textual and visual, titles, themes, character descriptions/identities, and critical analyses).

   "This work attempts to engage with the process of structure: In this case, the structure of an academic text."

4. Redeeming the Gene, Molding the Golem, Folding the Protein

   A mythic parody that challenges current genetic engineering techniques. After being considered a source of female evil for thousands of years, Lilith and Eve reinvent themselves by creating an ethical gene according to ancient Hebraic Kabbalah ritual. With this new gene they mold a golem, an artificial anthropoid. The kabbalah gene displaces the artist's gene that Eduardo Kac invented in his artwork, "Genesis."

5. Roland HT

   Roland HT, in its second year of development, is a critical exposition and literary experiment which has as its focal point the protagonist of the 11th-century Song of Roland and of many other works in European literary canons. The project uses hypertext theory and fragmentary writing to combine Roland storylines from different literary traditions into a single multi-pathed narrative. A new, composite character is thus created.

6. Semiotic Poetry

   Semiotic Poetry: "cellular selfportrait", "study of letters with cloud", "vocals", "little dream of the letter a."

   These poems are "dynamic or semiotic" Poetry: they work with letters/signs and their behaviors, using passages of the signification from a field (graphic field) to another (semantic /communicational) field for the letters; my interest is in exploring the dynamic behavior of these signs.

7. Slamming the Sonnet

   Slamming the Sonnet is a website emerging from the collaborative partnership of Jayne Fenton Keane (poet) and David Keane (artist and programmer). It investigates the construction of virtual bodies by using Slam poetry as a device to explore implications of re-theorizing the role of authors in habitats of poetry that are made of technological flesh rather than processed tree matter.

   This site investigates alternative models of interactivity through engagement with a virtual body made of space, movement, sound and flesh. It becomes terra electra, replete with multiple species of texts, some of which evolve in direct response to the user's actions. It becomes a dismembered cyborg that becomes a part of you as you navigate through it; as your senses are seduced by its voices, breathing and gaze. In other words, it interacts with you beyond the computer screen; it infiltrates your body. It subverts identity and creates a hyperreal competition where everyone is given equal status in its time and space: dead or alive, famous or unknown.
