  1. At Nightfall, the Goldfish

    “At Nightfall, the Goldfish” is an interactive digital story, exploring the new possibility of computational technologies to present the nonlinear narrative. This writing applies the first person for each character telling their life experience. Each chapter is closely related to another. There are many symbols of life and death, indicating the topic of metempsychosis in this piece. Readers are provided with full freedom to decide the reading order and to interpret.

    The story applies several narrative strategies, including maze narrative, circular method, and leaping strategy. The author designs the surreal plot with entangled interlinks on purpose. One more layer is set in the digital form with interaction, creating the atmosphere and revealing the underlying implication.

    The interface utilizes code for interaction and a shader based on a jQuery Ripples plugin to create the water wave effect. The author tries to break the limitation of the online reading experience by creating the bridge between vision and tactile sense. The water wave also has multiple meanings as a vital sign of the intervening substance for the circle of life.

  4. Fall 2021 Editors' Note

    Upon opening the Fall 21 issue, you might be surprised to discover its breadth. Although The New River’s issue contents have historically been in the single digits, this season’s comprises 14 individual pieces, including an interview feature with writer and artist Lillian-Yvonne Bertram. Each work is strikingly different from the next, as the genres range from speculative interactive fiction to online sound installations to generative cruft.

  5. CAPTCHA Poem@

    This CAPTCHA Poem@ belongs to a larger “oleatory” poem/project titled “Mar y virus / Virus and the Sea,” in which humans, poetry and technology intersect to address the COVID pandemic. The original CAPTCHA acronym is therefore transferred into a new ontology of inclusion and exchange, redefined as “Completely Automated Public test to Tie Computers and Humans as Allies.”  Under a constant expectation of “not touching,” this new paradigm also allows for both distance and connection, a paradox not exempt from anxiety within an environment under siege.
