  2. Ambulance: An Electronic Novel

    Very little information about this work is available online. P. Sugarman writes that "Ambulance is about some Gen-Xers who run into a string of spectacularly bad luck involving a car accident and a serial killer disguised as an ambulance driver. One of the most effective elements here is the music sampling. The droning repetition of the musical phrases, over & over while you absorb slices of the story, gives the whole experience an obsessive, claustrophobic feeling."

  3. Underbelly

    Underbelly is a playable media fiction about a woman sculptor, carving on the site of a former colliery in the north of England, now landscaped into a country park. As she carves, she is disturbed by a medley of voices and the player/reader is plunged into an underworld of repressed fears and desires about the artist’s sexuality, potential maternity and worldly ambitions, mashed up with the disregarded histories of the 19th Century women who once worked underground mining coal.

  6. Firefly

    Firefly: a tale told in 180 degrees of separation is a lyrical yet formal structure comprised of 6 stanzas, each five lines "long" and six lines "deep." Readers make their own way through the text by clicking on each line to reveal a different facet of the story. Click on the right hand icon for the next installment of lines.

    The work is a "true" hypertext in that it cannot be read linearly. The structure, subtly changing settings, and reader interaction all provide multi-dimensional spaces for meaning, subtext, and context.

  7. Composition No. 1

    Composition No. 1 is a re-imagining of the little known classic by French writer, Marc Saporta. Saporta writes about the interconnected stories of a group of Parisians, centred around the Sorbonne. Quite literally, Composition No. 1 is made up entirely of stand alone pages. Each has its own self-contained narrative, leaving it to you to shuffle through and decide which order to read the book, and how much or little you want to read before you begin again.

    Key features:

    > Randomly shuffled pages, allowing you to play and read however much or little you want.
    > Randomized, interactive cover; slide letters around like fridge magnets.
    > Explore a typographic artwork, using the book's entire text.

  10. Les Amants de Beaubourg

    This work was made in the event of the 30th anniversary of the Centre Pompidou. Thirty works each represented a year from 1977 to 2007 and Young-hae Chang Heavy Industries represented year 2007 with the work Les Amants de Beaubourg. The work deals with more philosophical questions than other more narrative-based works, such as Bust Down the Doors!, by Young-hae Chang Heavy Industries and has many references to the creation of art by artists, especially Marcel Duchamp.
