  2. Raphèl

    On the Web, Bernardo Schiavetta proposes Raphèl. Raphèl is a multilingual cento, a collage poem of quotations in various languages, which is to be read as the endless commentary of a sentence from the Divine Comedy, an asemantic sentence attributed by Dante to Nimrod, the builder of the Tower of Babel. The basic form of Raphèl is a cyclic stanza of ten lines which can reproduce itself infinitely if the reader clicks on one of its ten linear links and/or ten interlinear links: A click on a line in the left column gives access to its source. A click (precise) on a line spacing gives access to the corresponding stanza at the next level.

    Raphèl is thus a poetic hypertext whose very form relies on the hyperlink. As far as Raphèl develops a formal process of proliferation of lines based on the principle of the cento and the crown of sonnets, this "unlimited babelic hyperpoem" is structurally a never ending text.

  5. Book of Waste

    Book of Waste is a collection of bleak short stories that can be read in multiple directions. The text is often imposed against atmospheric photography and unstable video effects with accompanying ambient sound. In some stories, the text is manipulated or moves/transforms over time, adding to the work's overall sense of instability. One section requires the discovery of a short number code to gain access to it.

  10. obituaries.count

    What the user sees is a black-and-white, rectangular obituary in the middle of the
    computer screen which addresses the victims of the last Iraq war. By letting the languages
    and the meaning the textual fragments create fluctuate, the author emphasises
    the fact that obituaries are a global phenomenon, the rhetorics of which are replaceable
    and interchangeable regardless of where these are being written or read. The date of
    the obituary is always the same as the actual date the text is read on, thus the text
    gains the quality of actuality and credibility at the same time. Furthermore, in order to
    increase the desired artistic effect, the author has put a body-count at the bottom of the
    page, which is incremented roughly every second. Furthermore, there are strong sounds
    of war, such as machine-gun fire, and screams of women and children in the background.
