2. Entre

   Entre (‘Enter’) (2001), a CD-ROM created by Brazilian artists Rafael Lain and Angela Detanico, that makes us think that it is possible to dare a non-phonetic thinking as a matrix of new cultural practices. The CD’s title, Entre, comprises some of its features. “Entre” in Portuguese means, as an imperative verb, “enter” and as an adverb it means “between,” and this double meaning transforms the title into an invitation and into a challenge: an invitation because it invites us to think of nothing but exploring its universe; a challenge because it constantly makes us hesitate in trying to define it, since it is a project that stays between writing and speech, between music and drawing, between letter and digit. Without explanations, it gives the reader two possibilities: to touch images, drawing with sounds, randomly using the computer keyboard; or installing a series of fonts created by Rafael Lain.

3. Quibbling

   Through motifs of mothering, distance and intimacy, geography and labyrinths, art and writing, nuns and priests, the moon, and sexuality, Quibbling recreates the experience of writing, of assembling a story from fragments of the experience, connecting this empowering process of assembly with the process by which we assemble ourselves and our lives. What at first may seem purposely fragmented is actually as continuous and cohesive as any given time period in a person's life.

   Employing their usual mix of animated black and white typography, jazzy music and humor, the work explores the international contemporary art market from the artists' perspective, through the use of an insomniac narrator musing over its persuasion. [Source: website description]

6. Negative Space: a Computerized Video Novel

   "The first in a line of "computer video novels" that meld text, graphics, and video", according to Robert Kendall in his article "Writing for the New Millenium: the Birth of Electronic Literature." The WorldCat entry summarised it thus: "Through interplay of computer and video, the story of a professor and his wife and their quest to start a family is told," and specifies that the work consists of a VHS tape with a 3.5" floppy disk.

   (The publication date is from the WorldCat record for the floppy disk edition, and I haven't found any supporting evidence of such an early date - or another date, either. Is it likely that the CD version would have come five whole years later?)

8. R3/\/\1X\/\/0RX - selected works

   R3/\/\1X\/\/0RX (remixworx) - selected works:

   an online journal of digital art and writing - 2006 to 2012

   R3/\/\1X\/\/0RX (remixworx) is a space for the remixing of digital media, including visual poetry (vispo), electronic poetry (flashpo), playable media, animation, music, spoken word, texts and more. It began as a blog in November 2006 and has grown to number over 500 individual works of media. The source material is made available and all media is freely given to be remixed. Each new work is remixed, literally or conceptually, from other works on the blog. Then, the new work is linked to the blog post(s) that contain the component parts, thus the blog 'talks to itself' - "I link therefore I am" (Mark Amerika). The project promotes no single 'author', and we keep dogma chained outside the gate. It is not a tame place, though, and artful innuendo is evident.

   Written for the Apple IIe in 1985, this work was rescued from the floppy disc by MITH scholar Matthew Kirschenbaum in 2011. According to Digital Currents by Margot Lovejoy, the floppy disc was originally inserted into the back of Zelevansky's print book The Case for the Burial of Ancestors.
