  4. Alice Bell

    My research interests are digital literature, narrative theory and stylistics. My monograph, The Possible Worlds of Hypertext Fiction, develops and supplements Possible Worlds Theory for its application to hypertext fiction. The text includes analyses of four canonical hypertext fiction works and also offers a theoretical evaluation of Possible Worlds Theory. In my current work, I am developing a number of other narratological and literary linguistic frameworks for the analysis of digital fiction including cognitive poetic and unnatural narratological approaches. I am the principal investigator of the Digital Fiction International Network (funded by The Leverhulme Trust Jan 2009 - Jan 2010). The network provides an arena for a new generation of scholars to collaborate on integral theoretical and analytical issues within digital fiction research.

  10. Figurski at Findhorn on Acid

    Richard Holeton's Figurski at Findhorn on Acid is a hypertext novel released for Storyspace by Eastgate publishers in 2001. The story follows the main character Frank Figurski’s quest to acquire a legendary mechanical pig. As Alice Bell points out, this was one of the last major hypertext works created using Storyspace, as authors began to move to web-based tools and CD-ROM based platform became outmoded (150).

    Background:

    Holeton's hypertext work originated as an award-winning short story “Streleski on Findhorn on Acid" published in 1996 (Grigar et al). That same year, he took part in Robert Kendell's online writing class "Hypertext Poetry and Fiction" at the The New School for Social Research, where he reworked the print story into an electronic text. He produced a novel-length draft for his masters thesis at San Francisco State University; it was the first electronic thesis approved by SFU (Grigar et al). The "canonical" version of Figurski at Findhorn on Acid was released on CD-ROM by Eastgate publishers in 2001.
