Tide-Land
Originally published in BeeHive 3:4 (December 2000), this poem maps human experiences, narrative, weddings, funerals, and memory onto the ebb and flow of waters in tidelands— those coastal regions where rivers flow into the sea. The metaphorical relations between tidelands and individual and collective experience, past and present, knowledge and intuition are enacted in the use of hypertext and layers. This layering of text and image makes some lines and words difficult to read, breaking with the tradition of sequential arrangement of texts to draw attention towards new juxtapositions and the blending of human experiences. The poem also references estuaries, islands, and water during high, low, and neap tides— lunar and maritime cycles presented as a female analog to the more masculine solar solstices and equinoxes that have received such archetypal attention. This is a work worthy of rereading and reflection to allow its language and images to ebb and flow in and out of your conscious mind.

E:Electron
E:Electron is an extended structural analogy, using the periodic table of elements to muse on the life of a love affair and states of mind. Three pieces work together to create nuances of connections and relations. A poem hidden in the periodic table of elements leads to the stages of a relationship. Each element adds a new electron or word association, cumulating in a lifetime of memory. These connect to an intricate series of poems that fill each electron shell with musing.

hektor
hektor is one of the main characters in the non-aggressive narrative - a mode of Benjaminian storytelling. The NAN proposes the "continuation of a story which is just unfolding." I use digital and traditional media to create encounters between an ambiguous 'I' and potential 'You.' By embracing memory as a collage in motion through multiple characters, the NAN implies an origin story that may or may not have occurred. You are invited to co-invent this unfolding 'past,' and its openness suggests possibility and multiplicity. In a 1965 interview with Michael Kirby, John Cage said that theatre is not done to its viewers; they do it to themselves.

[raveling]
Mary Flanagan, State University of New York, Buffalo (USA)
"[raveling]"[raveling] is a poetry performance piece for machines and human about memory and communication which posits verbal communication and text as iterative rituals that can mutate and change over time, distance, and repetition.
Prior to the piece I produced a poem with my computer. This performance was a stream-of-consciousness spoken word event and was translated by the machine. My computer synthesized the words it recognized and I saved these words into a rough poem.
In performance I read this synthesized computer/human poem to the public and to computer #1. This first computer/performer will listen to the poem and after listening, read back the composition as it recognized aloud to the audience and to the second computer/performer. The second computer/performer will listen to the poem composed by the first computer and read back the poem it recognized aloud to the audience. Each computer and human has its own voice and vocal qualities including timbre, speed, etc. They work together to bring meaning to the piece.

Tejido de memoria. Memory Waves
Memory weaves is a dynamic work that incorporates input by the users, resulting in more dynamic content. It explores the topics of human rights, poverty and social inequality, providing access to videos, statistical information, graphics and images in an intuitive way. It provides a space that reveals itself subtly, in veiled layers that can be reorganized, forming a non-linear narrative that seeks to evoke the paths of memory. Memory that can be read as a “weave” that constructs and reconstructs our present (Source: efagia.org).

IP Poetry
Project IP Poetry questions the statute of poetry and poets. On the one hand, as far as the construction of robots is concerned, it highlights the subjectivization of technological systems, those we provide of determinate human augmented characteristics artificially –memory, ability to speak and listen to each other-. On the other hand, with regards to the poetic constructions as a result, we take advantage of the virtual configuration of a collective human memory through the Internet Web and a poetics based on machinery and random. Using a proximity sensor the system detects the presence of the audience and sends a command to the robots to make them start to recite poems created for each event.

Le Dernier Volcan
This video project explores Norwegian folk histories that return as fragments in light of ongoing volcanic eruptions. The project was recorded in Bergen following the disruptions caused by the activities of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland. A folk history of disaster is set against slowly revolving images set in a contemporary landscape. This is the first of a series of works recorded in Norway that juxtapose folk histories and contemporary events to explore narrative and associative characteristics of cultural anxieties and collective memory. The project was researched and filmed by Roderick Coover in 2010 thanks to a distinguished-scholar-in-residence award from the University of Bergen.

The Reverberatory Narrative: Toward Story as a Multisensory Network
The Reverberatory Narrative: Toward Story as a Multisensory Network is an evolving, transmedia series that employs print, film, installation and digital practices in the assembling and disassembling of lyric essays, poetry, graphic design, photography and physical artifacts in an experimental documentary of memory, time and story. The initial form of this documentary work was an installation at the photography gallery Agnes in Birmingham, Alabama in 1993, titled "Undressing Audrey," in which the viewer physically "undressed" the book, slipping text from a woman's garments, one button and layer at a time. Through subsequent, increasingly digital interpretations, Pretty relied on a layered structure that attempted to approximate the original installation experience through a series of overlapping narrative threads that could be sorted and resorted by different contexts and media types, such as time, place, character, artifact, image, audio, and video, among others.
