  3. Wasting Time

    Wasting Time, a story about three characters, is told simultaneously from separate but parallel points of view--using three columns of text in a series of 25 computer monitor screens. The story takes place on a January evening in a house in the Rocky Mountain foothills. (100)
    Wasting Time takes advantage of the computer as a temporal text processor. The dialogue appears on screen at the point when each character would speak. The reader may hit the return key when she is prepared to continue. The reader may not vary the linear progression of text, but may control the speed at which it unfolds. The text is, nonetheless, an "active book." It borrows techniques from film, such as shot-reverse-shot, to control the reader's experience of the text. See also the graphic novel.

    The text for Wasting Time is simple and unadorned. One interesting feature of the program is that the snow falls upwards.

  5. Attempting Ziggurats 4

    Attempting Ziggurats 4 is an installation based on a story by John Barth entitled "Glossolalia," which is made up of a set of oblique and somewhat desperate words that have a familiar ring to them. As each section of the spoken text of the story unfolds, underlying sounds of social activities are gradually folded into its rhythm.

    The various versions of Attempting Ziggurats find their basis in the story of the Tower of Babel and its ongoing reverberations in American culture. The pivotal moment of the story, the instant that language becomes noise, is one that is forever enshrined in American society through its incorporation of cultural difference as a central component of the concept and fabric of the nation. Here, that babble of noise repeatedly coalesces into the rhythms of the Lord's Prayer, a text which, prior to 1962, was recited daily in United States public school classrooms.
