1. re: génération

   Since the rise of the mainframe computer, literary authors and critics alike have expressed anxiety about the computer’s ability to write narrative prose and poetry as well humans, or better. This lecture situates the contemporary digital literary practices of reading, writing, rewriting, and performing computer-generated texts within a broader social and historical context, dating to long before the advent of the computer. Christopher Strachey's 1952 Love Letter generator and Theo Lutz's The Castle generator are discussed in depth.

2. The Book of Nature as Media

   In connection with the workshop “Aesthetic Imaginaries in Text and Image” 28-April, author and professor of English Steve Tomasula (University of Notre Dame) wil give two talks connected to his work. The talks are open to all interested:

   “Ascension, A Novel: A Reading/Presentation of an Image-Text Novel in Progress”

   “Ascension is a story of nature as it was. And is. And might become. It is the story of how our changing conception of nature, and the means we use to depict it, change the “natural.” And ourselves. It is the story of how we continually remake the world in our own image and in turn are remade by it."

4. Demoscene, or Decentering Digital Media

   Digital media, which are today dominant in social communication, serve also different types of creative expression (video games, new media art, electronic literature, demoscene). It is trivial to say that digital media are dominated by the English language. Both most recognized theoretical texts as well as canonical works are in the English language. And it is the West that is treated as dominant in this area. However, only over the past few years have we seen a new trend emerging, one which aims to discover what has happened in areas that the center has meaningfully called the “end (s)”. Particularly interesting are the perspectives and phenomena that have developed without influence or inspiration from the center in question (for example, communist countries beyond the Iron Curtain or the non-Latin languages, like Arabic or Chinese).

The title of his talk,  “The ZX Spectrum Demoscene as Organized Anarchy,” argues that the ZX Spectrum platform is unique as compared to other 8-bit machines and can be seen as organized anarchy. The event is scheduled on Friday, September 1, from 12-1 p.m. in VMMC 211A on the campus of WSUV.

    Umieszczając poza centrum. Media cyfrowe a literatura eksperymentalna
    dr Piotr Marecki (UJ, Ha!Art)

    piątek, 26 maja 2017, g. 14:30, s. 3
    wstęp wolny

    Media cyfrowe, które są dzisiaj dominujące w komunikacji społecznej, służą także jako narzędzia do różnych form ekspresji (literatura elektroniczna, sztuka mediów, gry, demoscena). Truizmem jest powiedzenie, że język angielski jest dominujący w mediach cyfrowych. Zarówno wszelkie badania, jak i dzieła kanoniczne funkcjonują w języku angielskim i to Zachód uważany jest jako dominujący w tej dyscyplinie. Ale z drugiej strony od kilku lat w obszarze mediów cyfrowych zaobserwować można nowe trendy, które zmierzają do odkrycia tego, co centrum znacząco nazywa „obrzeżami”. Szczególnie interesujące wydają się perspektywy i zjawiska, które zostały rozwijane bez wpływu i inspiracji centrum (na przykład kraje za Żelazną Kurtyną, Ameryka Łacińska czy kraje arabskie).
