Language and the Interface
“Language and the Interface” features a selection of 27 works, and results from research work carried out for the FCT PhD Programme in Materialities of Literature. The exhibition is curated by Daniela Côrtes Maduro, Ana Marques da Silva and Diogo Marques. It has been designed as an exploratory sample of writing strategies from different moments (1990-2015), in various languages (English, Portuguese, French), using diverse technologies (stand-alone and networked computer, tablets and mobile devices, augmented reality applications). The show is part of the international conference “Digital Literary Studies” hosted by the School of Arts and Humanities at the University of Coimbra, May 14-15, 2015. The works will be on display at the Faculdade de Letras (Room 6, 4th floor). For further information see: Exhibition “Language and the Interface”. (Source: Digital Literary Studies Conference 2015)

Kid E-lit
The Kid E-Lit exhibition showcases experimental electronic literature for children and teenagers alongside popular Nordic children’s and young adult’s book apps for tablets. The exhibition is organized in collaboration with Bergen Public Library and is funded by Nordic Cultural Point. The exhibition includes seven works selected from submissions to the ELO 2015 arts program as well as two works from each of the participating Nordic countries by Nordic researchers and librarians. The Kid E-Lit exhibition will be on display in the Bergen Public Library in August and September 2015, and the Kid E-Lit network will subsequently develop new versions of the exhibition to tour other Nordic libraries. A separate catalog in both English and Scandinavian language has been published and details the project more exensively.

Decentering: Global Electronic Literature
While there are strong centers of activity in electronic literature in North America and Western Europe, innovations in digital textuality are also taking place in Eastern Europe and in the Southern hemisphere. This exhibition focuses on electronic literature from Brazil, Peru, Poland, Portugal, and Russia.
This exhibition at 3,14 focuses on electronic literature produced by international authors and artists outside of the Anglo/American and Western European mainstream, including the countries Brazil, Canada, Peru, Poland, Portugal and Russia. The works in this exhibit were selected both via an open call and by curators from Poland (Piotr Marecki), Russia (Natalia Fedorova and Daria Khabarova), and Portugal (Álvaro Seiça). Both historical works and contemporary projects are represented. Bringing these diverse collections together provides an opportunity to consider how practices and genres in electronic literature are influenced both by the exchange of ideas on the global network and by important national and regional artistic traditions.
Works and Curated Exhibitions include:

p2p: Polish-Portuguese E-Lit
The p2p exhibition brings to the public different digital literary works produced by Polish and Portuguese authors in the past four decades. Polish and Portuguese literary, artistic, social, political, and even religious contexts are quite similar, even if geographically distant, and still quit divergent. It has been a fascinating surprise to find evidence of several common threads in works of experimental and generative literature from Poland and Portugal, including Spectrum-based animated poetry/Demoscene, and ActionScript-based digital poetry and fiction.
The exhibition will therefore be constructed around three nuclei: experimentalism, activism and animation. For this purpose, the p2p exhibition proposes to present, face-to-face, works by authors such as Pedro Barbosa, Silvestre Pestana, E. M. de Melo e Castro, Rui Torres, André Sier, Manuel Portela, Luís Lucas Pereira, Józef Żuk Piwkowski, Marek Pampuch, Michał Rudolf, Kaz, Piotr Puldzian Płucienniczak, Leszek Onak and Andrzej Głowacki.A part of the ELO 2015 exhibition “Decentering: Global Electronic Literature” at 3,14 gallery in Bergen, Norway (August 4-23, 2015).

The New Unconscious
Sigmund Freud understood the unconscious as a place of libidinal repression. Art in turn found inspiration in psychoanalysis—surrealism took as its manifesto Freud’s The Interpretation of Dreams (1913), and later abstract expressionism explored the irrational desires of the Freudian unconscious. With new technologies of the 21st century, science exposed a deeper mental reality and proved that human behavior is the product of an endless stream of perceptions, feelings, and thoughts, at both the conscious and unconscious levels. Even with technologies today that allow for an empirical observation of the mind, reality itself is still debated. As in gestalt theory, the brain completes external imagery the eye cannot produce—all done at an unconscious level. If a central function of the unconscious is to fill in the blanks in order to construct a useful picture of reality, how does this affect our understanding of the world? “The New Unconscious” explores how human behavior is dually dictated by the conscious and unconscious mind.

Hybridity and Synaesthesia
The Hybridity and Synaesthesia exhibition at Lydgalleriet features works that push at the edges of literature and other art forms. These works appeal to other aspects of the sensorium than those we typically associate with reading, for example involving haptic sensation, touch-based interactivity, innovative audio elements, interactive
images, or locative technologies.(source: ELO 2015 catalog)

Interventions: Engaging the Body Politic
The Interventions exhibition features works that engage with contemporary cultural discourse and political reality, challenging audiences to consider digital artifacts and practices that reflect and intervene in matters of the environment, social justice, and our relation to the habitus. The program also includes a presentation of works originally made for 3D CAVEs adapted for the Oculus Rift, and in Cinemateket a performance of a “code opera” and screenings of a film about the field of electronic literature.
