meaning of the story can be conveyed through a sense of spatiality and perspective that is arguably unique to digitally networked environments.
hyperfiction is the new 3D!

Hypertext documents can either be static (prepared and stored in advance) or dynamic (continually changing in response to user input, such as dynamic web pages).
so it may exists an e-lit piece that always generates a different experience for the reader as function of specific circumstances?
With hypertext we focus, both as writers and as readers, on structure as much as on prose,
spatial and structural references reminds me the idea of jumping from 2D to 3D
Because of this, many programmers see process and data as interchangeable
alchemists
And it is not surprising that Strachey's effort is mostly of interest in terms of how it operates, rather than in the text it produces. After all, designing interesting ways for computers to operate-algorithms, processes-is at the heart of what most computer scientists and creative programmers do, from Turing and Strachey's moment to this day. In many ways we are al-Khwarizmi's descendants
are we still exploring what computable is?
Once there were stored program digital computers, all that remained (for our field to take its first step) was for someone to make literary use of one.
art likes technology
the investigation of what can and can't be computed
love that definition. is funny that with the arts, [humans by using ] computers become able to expand or recreate that
To me, "digital art" is the larger category of which "digital literature" is a part. It encompasses all the arts that require digital computation, not just the literary arts.
Totally agree, this resolves that 'multidisciplinary' thing
The transition from this relatively centralised and explicit community to the networked communities and scattered individuals of the Web is an interesting one to explore.
I like the idea of undefined between individual and collective author and consumer roles.
Rather, she focuses on the interconnections between embodied writers and users and the intelligent machines that perform electronic texts.
Procedures more than elements. E-lit writers are coders. Also, may be non-human.
In beginning a study of Electronic Literature, the best place to start is N. Katherine Hayles' book, Electronic Literature: New Horizons for the Literary, published by Notre Dame Press in 2008
they mean the first step to e-lit is a traditional printed book? ironic.
Put simply, Electronic Literature is considered a "born digital" art form with unique approaches to thinking about and working with digital technologies for the purpose of creating literary art
digital technologies are everywhere. 'born digital' is a wide concept. what kind of criteria is used to recognize art from digital waste?
Electronic literature, or e-lit, refers to works with important literary aspects that take advantage of the capabilities and contexts provided by the stand-alone or networked computer. Within the broad category of electronic literature are several forms and threads of practice, some of which are
Maybe e-lit is also concerced with the procedures or algorithms that generates it.
