1. Variations in Literature: A Multimodal Analysis of Dissimilar Versions of the Tale “Little Red Riding Hood”

   Today, Digital technology not only helps its users in every walk of life to address human limitations but also to control and direct their ideologies. Hence, the novel concept of advanced Transhumanism is prevalent. This Study seeks to explore the possibilities of conducting research in the field of Human Language and Digital Technology amidst related fields. The article presents theoretical concepts and methodological tools from multimodal analysis that allow the readers to gain new insights into the study of electronic literature and the difference between a monomodal and multimodal children literature. The data for this article comes from Grimm brothers’ transcribed tale named “Little Red Riding Hood” directly from fairy tale narrated by their villagers and the digital novel “red riding hood” from the 1st Collection of Electronic Literature. The discussion and analysis part of the project explains how various modes can be used to convey the underlying meanings clearly and create a single masterpiece which is suggested as a new form of literature.

3. Platformization and Decolonial E-Lit. Is There Any Chance?

   We will discuss the issue of the platformization of culture from a Latin-American perspective and decolonial thinking. Platforms strive on the automated algorithmic administration of access and reproduction of creative works (text, sound, video, o code-based). The common trait of current platform culture is the maximization of profit by means of garnering data and attention in order to capture more attention (and more data). In this context, is there any space for pursuing artistic digital activism and decolonial e-lit? The presentations in this panel will try to answer this question. The panel will be Spanish-English based in a sort of tentative of linguistic decolonization of e-lit field:

7. Follow the Pathfinders: a Case Study Approach to Production, Use, and Readership on Scalar

   This born-digital article examines the multimodal academic publication Pathfinders (Moulthrop and Grigar). Through a combination of interviews with readers and the author, textual analysis of the book, and literature review of Scalar, I trace the affordances of the platform, appropriation by scholars, the media text, and readership of Pathfinders. I distill themes that are key in the multimodality of the book, including platform adoption, institutional embedding, technological context and research values. Throughout the article, which is also written on Scalar, I reflect on my own use of Scalar and the various considerations that come with it in terms of software sustainability, accessibility, and transparency of research context. I conclude with a reflection on the media specificity of Scalar as an academic platform.
