The Book After the Book
One is not after the novelty of cyberculture, nor striving to reinforce the now tedious discourse of the Internet’s redeeming potential as a computer web able to candidly unite all humanity into a global village.
This wouldn’t be more than a chapter in the spectacular history being successfully elaborated in the last ten years by the computer and software industry.
This narrative confers to the selfsame industry the power and the mission to inaugurate a new era. But digital writing points to another direction. It celebrates the loss of inscription by removing the trace from acts of erasure.

Webessay
What happens with an essay when it abandons the set form of book pages, and steps out into the internet's virtual space? Webessay is an invitation into a digital meta-essay: an enormous text-tapestry of quotations, photos, rt and music produced from the two essayists associations and personal library, and arranged into four metaphorical trips: the scientific expedition, the internal journey, the big city holiday, and space tourism. The travelers move past over fifty different stops in all, and are sketched out with the help of many hundreds of airmail-striped envelopes. The program is organized so that the traveler can follow the predetermined routes' tracks, or take a spontaneous trip with the help of self-selected links. You can search in the depths, surf freely away in a labyrinth of hypertexts, or you can choose to be led by the webessay's composition. You're guaranteed to get lost, and find something you weren't expecting.

Speak: a Hypertext Essay
This modest work is an essay which engages non-linear narrative and includes multimedia elements such as sound and image. The title is taken from Gayatri Spivak's essay, "Can the subaltern speak?." Variously, postcolonialism and feminism as discourses of 'otherness' have addressed the notion of 'speaking' and 'speaking position', asking questions such as 'who speaks for whom?', 'who is authorised to speak'. Such questions displace the idea that the 'other' is absent or silent, or that the 'other' is indeed 'other'.

Quam Artem Exerceas?
Quam Artem Exerceas? (Latin for "what do you do for a living?") refers to a question the physician Bernardino Ramazzini, also known as "the father of occupational medicine", often asked his patients to identify work-related causes of diseases they presented with. The work is a scholarly hypertext essay that represents aspects of scientific historiography and aims for maximum scholarly clarity and cohesion.
With the use of a navigation pane on the left side of the screen, users can traverse the different contextual sections of the treatise easily and can learn about enlightenment thought, early industrial inventions, and early modern litterature art.
