First Person: New Media as Story, Performance and Game
Electronic games have established a huge international market, significantly outselling non-digital games; people spend more money on The Sims than on "Monopoly" or even on "Magic: the Gathering." Yet it is widely believed that the market for electronic literature—predicted by some to be the future of the written word—languishes. Even bestselling author Stephen King achieved disappointing results with his online publication of "Riding the Bullet" and "The Plant."

Choice vs. Interaction: the Case of Online Caroline
Reader choice among links in hypertext has often been classified as a form of interactiuvity and has sometimes been claimed as empowering the reader. The case of the website Online Caroline, however, shows that it is possible for apparent choice and interaction to serve only to further constrain and dictate the reader's experience. We must be careful to distinguish meaningful from superficial choice when evaluating “interactive fiction” and its potential.

Toward an Ontology of the Field of Digital Poetry
author-submitted abstract:
This essay proposes a model of an ontology based on the ontological model by Spinoza commented by Deleuze. It aims at establishing properties of a tool for indexing documents related to the field of digital poetry. It is build in three stages.
In a first stage, we build a normalised graphical representation of the Spinoza’s model. We show that this philosophical model can easily be schematised in a combination between a relation/entity model and an set representation with internal graphical lows. These graphics are normalised because each part of them has a unique and constant significant. So, such graphics can be used to make graphical treatment of information in relationship with databases.

Electronic Literature Without a Map
The paper discusses several problems that seem to define and determine the field of electronic literature in theory and practice and suggests several strategies to remedy the situation in the spirit that is both analytical and polemical.
Electronic literature has been around at least for 50 years and many of its typical ergodic ingredients share a cultural (pre)history that reaches back to classical antiquity and beyond (I Ching). Still, the cultural, economical, educational and even literary status and visibility of electronic literature is low and obscure at best despite occasional canonisations of hypertext fiction and poetry (the works of Michael Joyce and Jim Rosenberg), literary groups such as the OuLiPo that from very early on extended their orientation beyond print literature, and the efforts of an international or semi-international organisation (ELO) to promote and preserve electronic literature - not to mention multiple and more or less influential and comprehensive theories of electronic and ergodic literature.

Junction of Image, Text, and Sound in Net.fictions
Since modernism, the experimental art has been filled with the flow of “intermedial turn“, projected in/through all its forms and has found one of its ”stations“ in the form of digital fictions. The subject of my attention lies in the research and analysis of the multimedial fictions on internet through the junction of image, text and sound into the communicative unit. I implement the narratological point of view, and perceive these works of art also from the prism of their reception and subsequent reader’s projection of the fictional world, which could result in her immersion in it.

Polish Way to E-Literature from Baroque to 21st Century
In this paper I present the origins of Polish proto-hypertexts starting from the Baroqe and ending at the communist period. The comparative approach shows us that the Polish roots of e-literature are - to a large extent - linked with European ones. In the Baroque we see the rise of Polish ergodic works (among others Wojciech Wa?niowski, of Teodor's Jakub Tr?becki, Miko?aj Lubomirski). Twentieth century avant-garde give us some more examples of works of poetry and fiction that employ with words and images (e.g. Julian Przybo?,). But stiil these examples may be regarded as mirror-images of the proto-cybertexts of French, German, or Italian authors.
It was only after the Second World War that this has changed, although more in terms of quantity than quality. The communism didn't disturb and even supported the works of concrete poetry (e.g. Stanis?aw Dro?d?) to come into existence. The better part of the heritage of our native concrete poetry movement was reshaped in the last decades of XXth century by authors whose works were given the label of "Liberatura" – total literature in which the text and the physical, spatial aspects of a book constitute an inseparable whole.
