The Virtual and The Virtuous
Con l’avvento di Internet la quantità di materiale "elettronico" esistente è aumentata sempre di più. Il web rappresenta sicuramente un passo in avanti sconvolgente nella storia del progresso dell’umanità; pur tuttavia tale dispositivo tecnologico è stato soggetto a numerose critiche dal momento che, secondo una posizione la quale, un tempo, avremmo definito “apocalittica”, questo ci starebbe portando verso la fine della Galassia Gutenberg. Con Internet ciò che è evidente è che ci si trova di fronte ad un’omogeneizzazione a livello del supporto grazie al quale la scrittura si veicola e si innesta, ma questa continua ad esistere, sia in quanto interfaccia possibile dell’intera storia tradizionale della letteratura, sia, ed in maniera consistente, in forme innovative. L'incontro tra digitale e mondo della letteratura ha dato vita ad uno scenario assolutamente inedito, senz'altro caratterizzato da una serie di nuove possibilità, ma, al contempo, anche da paradossi e puntellato da non pochi interrogativi.

E-Art: Fragmentation and Assembling
What constitutes the distinctive aspects of digital art? In what manner is art (created by the possibilities offered by electronic writing) either breaking away from or innovating upon the previous artistic tradition? The search for an answer to these questions leads us to circumscribe five traits, many of which are common to more recent artistic traditions. These are, in order: reflections on language, the thematisation of the act of production, the conceptual value of the work, art in a place beyond its reproducibility and the consequent value of its uniqueness, but above all, the work as a fragmented assemblage.
“Self Portrait (s) [as Other (s)]” by Talan Memmott, published in the first volume of the Electronic Literature Collection, summarizes and provides a case study, and in many ways it is exemplary of these traits.

The Textual Whole and its Vicissitudes in Digital and Ergodic Literature
The paper tries to figure out what happens to the notion of the textual whole (or the literary work) if it can appropriate and mix texts not yet published, cannot be read in its entirety, if only a few of its signifiers can or will be shared by all its readers, there’s no clear termination point to its metamorphosis, and it sets conditions and constraints to its reading process ranging from temporal limitations to personal and personalized perspectives. Perhaps something has to change, but what exactly and how and why?

About Some Programmed Forms in Digital Poetry
The paper examines how programmed literary works can been classified by using digital specific characters. The use of dual signs (signs that are for some part in the program and for other on screen), the existence of a semiotic gap (the semiotic level worked in the program differs from the semiotic multimedia level on screen) and the pluricode nature of these works allow to classify the works regarding how they use coding, time and the semiotic gap.

Variability and Intermediality as Challenges to Preservation Issues: Reflections about the Design and Implementation of Digital Archives
In this presentation our intention is to present the project “PO.EX'70-80 - Digital Archive of Portuguese Experimental Literature” (Ref. PTDC/CLE-LLI/098270/2008). The corpus of works to be included in this Digital Archive include magazines, catalogs and publications in the area of concrete, visual, and sound poetry, as well as video-poetry and cybernetic literature of the 1970's and 80's. The process of digitizing the Portuguese experimental literature does not apply to some of the texts we will work with – texts that are dynamic, interactive and/or generative. Therefore, it is necessary to use processes of software emulation, accompanying them with the recovery and historical study of programming software (cybernetic literature) which is unavailable at the moment. Apart from this emulation, which corresponds to a literal archive, we will also invest in processes of digital transformation and re-creation of some of these works, with the use of multimedia and interactivity.

Aspects of Experiencing Poetry in Digital Media
Digital poetry uses both the machine and natural language, therefore the experience of digital poetry always lives on the borders of artifice and art or appearance and essence, where the borders fades. The essay searches for a native experience of poetry within digital media which is not a translation, representation or Ecphrasis of an existing piece of poetry by focusing on inter-activity and programming that make the poet-programmer and reader-player to meet and be involved in a poem; The essay tries to reveal the limitations of the machine language in creating a digital poem by concentrating on the syntax as an open-source consciousness of the natural language and the non-open-source nature of operating systems and compilers in the instant of writing poetry as the consciousness of the machine.
