1. #Hvisjegvarhvit

   #Hvisjegvarhvit (translated: #ifiwerewhite) is a norwegian hashtag that turned up in my twitter feed the evening of 19. March 2013. The twitter user @AbuHus started to post tweets about his experiences of being a colored person in Norway. His first tweet said: “#ifiwerewhite people would believe me when I say I am from Norway”. Soon several colored twitter users used the hashtag to tell stories from their lives as colored Norwegians. Through generalizing how white Norwegians act towards colored people also white Norwegians could get a feeling of how it feels to be generalized on behalf of your skin color. This wordplay shows how collaborative creativity can arise in social media based on the social relations in the Norwegian community. Among funny and entertaining tweets about being colored in Norway there is a recurring theme telling a about a reality that white Norwegians do not experience. We are not asked questions or being regarded with suspicion just because we are white. @AbuHus gave the colored Norwegians a voice which reached beyond twitter, and was noted by papers like Aftenposten and Dagbladet.

2. Minicontos Coloridos

   Minicontos Coloridos é uma forma sinestésica de escrever ficção, pois todos os minicontos foram produzidos a partir da cor. São 3 gradações para cada uma das 3 cores primárias da luz (escala RGB), totalizando 27 minicontos. Futuramente a ideia é ampliar para 5 gradações de cada cor, o que totalizaria 125 minicontos. O objetivo principal é fazer com que o leitor tenha uma nova experiência de leitura de ficção, precisando intervir para ler o maior número de textos possíveis. As histórias em si são por vezes trágicas, por vezes irônicas, poucas vezes românticas. Pela extrema concisão e ausência de título, cabe ao leitor buscar nas entrelinhas o desfecho, devendo usar também a cor para dar completude ao sentido das histórias Com experiências como essa buscamos demonstrar que a literatura existe para além dos livros, existe também em ambientes digitais, utilizando para sua construção ferramentas próprias dessas novas mídias.

3. Calypsis: A Hypertext Fiction

   CALYPSIS: A HYPERTEXT FICTION is based on a role-playing campaign featuring nine participants (seven player-characters and two game masters) that took place in three stages: world building, character creation, and a series of six role-playing sessions, mostly conducted online but also over email and a few face-to-face gatherings. These game narratives accompany each vignette, a storytelling segment derived from the game play. Calypsis was a creative PhD dissertation, accompanied by a critical introduction.
