  3. E-literature and the New Social Paradigms

    In the opening section of this paper the author introduces the paradigm “literary text as a ride” in terms of metaphor and more because it relates to a sequential event that challenges all of human senses, and might be considered as a procedure of experiencing and perceiving of new media art and e-literary pieces. In “The Language of New Media” (2001), Lev Manovich draws upon the general trend in modern society toward presenting more and more information in the form of time-based audiovisual moving image sequences. Today we can go even a step further from this claim by arguing that such moving image sequences are just the first level in today’s arrangement of artistic and textual contents. The next crucial form of their most recent method of presentation and experience is a ride as a sequential event, which fits the basic condition of today’s individual living in the mixed and hybrid reality as a “pluriversum” of a given world and (virtual) ones.

  5. Early Authors of E-Literature, Platforms of the Past

    A detailed discussion of the exhibit “Early Authors of Electronic Literature: The Eastgate School, Voyager Artists, and Independent Productions” (now installed at the University of Washington). Grigar looks specifically at the major technological shifts in affordances and constraints provided by early computer interfaces and the ways in which e-literature writers from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s worked with and against these interfaces. For example, she discusses the command-line interface of the Apple IIe – which was released in 1983 – as an example of an interface that exemplifies an ideology wholly different from the now dominant Graphic User Interface. Thus, the command-line interface also makes possible entirely different texts and entirely different modes of thinking/creating such as that exemplified by bp Nichols' “First Screening” from 1984.

  8. Collaborations in E-lit

    This essay, a discussion between two esteemed e-poets for whom collaboration is an integral part of their creative practice, appeared in the "The Collaborative Turn" special issue of American Book Review, guest-edited by Davis Schneiderman. In their discussion, Montfort and Strickland survey several common types of e-lit collaboration and provide links to representative examples. Strickland explicitly links the material aesthetics of code poetics to literary theorist Timothy Morton's call for critical thinking that engages the universe's enmeshed interconnectedness, which he dubs "the ecological thought."

  9. I Love E-Poetry

    This scholarly blog was launched on December 19, 2011 as a constraint to read and critically reflect upon a work of e-poetry every day, leading me to revisit known works, discover new ones, and expand my knowledge of this emergent poetic genre. Its initial performance was a continuous run of 500 daily entries, completed on May 2, 2013.

  10. Making Sense: aspects of the literary in electronic environments

    This paper investigates the manner in which e-literature is reconstructing and intensifying some of the sensory capacities of literary language. The interactive nature of many works, as well as their use of image and sound and the fact that the ‘surface’ text is produced and informed by a ‘deeper’ level of generative code, means that new critical concepts, vocabularies and ways of reading adequate to this new situation need to be developed. Katherine Hayles. John Cayley, Talan Memmot, and Rita Raley, have all written authoritatively on the importance of software and code in determining approaches to electronic poetics, and the difference this makes to how we understand new media writing. Matt Kirschenbaum makes the distinction between formal and forensic materiality in order to break down the emergent logics at play in the digital ‘text’. We introduce a different perspective, one that focuses on the ecology of the body (its distribution) in its engagement with different forms.
