2. Ibland försvinner rösten helt, under några timmar eller hela dagar. Denna företeelse saknar helt förklaring.

    "I Erikssons verk 'Ibland försvinner rösten helt, under några timmar eller hela dagar. Denna företeelse saknar helt förklaring.' försvinner röstens ljudregister och kvar finns tysta men likafullt artikulerande munnar stående på rad i glasburkar likt vetenskapliga, mystiska bevis som kan dissekeras och studeras närmare, men som ändå inte avslöjar sina hemligheter" (ur Maria Engbergs essä i nummer 48 av Pequod, samma nummer som Erikssons dikt publicerades i).

3. Die Aaleskorte der Ölig

   "Die Aaleskorte der Ölig" is a combination adventure with 20 scenes by Dirk Günther and Frank Klötgen which won the Pegasus Award of DIE ZEIT, the german prize for internet literature, in 1998. It is based on a short story with only one perspective. Before the adventure starts, the reader has a chance to participate by choosing the perspective for each scene. The five protagonists are the woman Ölig, Hohmann, a group of children and an eel. Afterwards the so called "movie" starts. Every scene has a different picture and text to describe the plot which changes based on the decisions of the user in the beginning.

4. Trilogy

   My work with visual narrative has included installation form, book works, diptychs and billboard presentations. Using the web has allowed me to continue to expand my preoccupations with constructing rules for reading, methods of pacing and continue to explore image/text relationships. I am interested in the space between language and image.

   Trilogy is comprised of 3 image/text narratives whose themes are concerned with survival. Locale and characters are suggested by cropped fragments from mass media imagery as well as map fragments. While the images may allude to time period by photographic style or content, their function (protagonist, action, location) is directed by the text.

   Trilogy is a collaboration with Los Angeles fiction writers Rod Moore and Katherine Haake, both of whom have allowed me to reconfigure their texts.

5. Mechanical Bride

   This conceptual poem exists as an enigmatic electronic object and a record of an online performance. To best appreciate the event and its record, one should be aware of several contexts:

   1. Marcel Duchamp’s piece titled The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even (a.k.a. The Large Glass). (In French: La mariée mise à nu par ses célibataires, même)
   2. The now defunct Modern Bride.com website.
   3. The Defib Interview space: an IRC chatroom hosted by Webartery.com(now 404), an online artists collective created and curated by Jim Andrews as an extension of the Webartery Yahoo Group (still active).

   As can be seen in the piece, Warnell created a mashup of the first two conceptual spaces, and invited the Webartery community to view the page and participate in a performance of the piece.
   During the chat, Warnell— using his identity PBN (Poem by Nari)— posted a sequence of 180 lines of code poetry (plus a “title” at the beginning and end) inspired by IRC commands. The participants reacted and responded to the lines as they appeared during the chat, numbered in a countdown from 180, as well as to Duchamp’s puzzling artwork.

6. Larvatus Prodeo

   This collaborative poem in three parts makes virtuoso use of the marquee tag, which along with the ever-annoying blink tag, has been disavowed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which imperils its existence in future browsers. Each of its parts uses this tag as a central device for shaping its text in a different way to play with Barthes’ notion of how the past is reduced and turned into “a slim and pure logos” through narrative as well as with Descartes’ use of the latin phrase larvatus prodeo (I come forth, masked).

7. Taroko Gorge [2012 remix]

   This edition of “Taroko Gorge” is the only remix published by Nick Montfort, and it generates text from exactly the same code, but it is a significantly different variation from the original. (Source: Leonardo Flores, I ♥ E-Poetry)

8. Chasing Pandora

   This hypertext poem included in the 2011 New Media Writing Prize Shortlist (in the Student category) tells the story of a stalker and his victim. The speaker is the stalker who opens a Facebook account under the pseudonym “David Mills” (after typing and deleting “Micheal” from the name field) to be better able to stalk the subject of his obsession, a young Canadian woman called Pandora Oaklear. The stalker is not much of a poet, writing in more or less iambic tetrameter and dimeter, rhyming words like “distance” with “persistence,” and using a rhyme scheme so irregular that it is surely a reflection of his perturbed thought process. He is smart enough to open accounts under multiple pseudonyms and in different cloud-based content hosting services, such as Webnode, Flickr (a Yahoo! service), Facebook, and YouTube (a Google service). Only this disturbing bit of center-justified verse and the focus on the victim weave all these photos, accounts, and videos together, including a newspaper clipping that chillingly gestures towards a blurred boundary between fiction and reality.
