[…]the concrete to the poetic to the theoretical, the following nine short statements were made by a group of emerging artists, scholars, and practitioners from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds. This video documents a presentation developed for the ‘Future of Electronic Literature’ panel at ELO 2012: Electrifying Literature: Affordances and Constraints June 20-23, 2012 Morgantown, WV The video was made in 2 weeks prior to conference using 123D. Voiceover was partially improvised at conference, then re-recorded afterwards. [Text voiceover from video] I have no idea What the future Will really bring I have no idea What time sings […]
[…]post-Platonic forms gesture toward a kind of cybernetic beauty (yes) for which there’s no critical vocabulary as yet. When Matthew G. Kirschenbaum speaks of the “radical aestheticization of information,” he means to suggest, I think, that the work of the artist in the “information age” is not – as hostile critics of postmodernism contend – only the critical work of resistance to informational transparency, or pure unadorned utility. The artist’s work is also the constructive work of noticing “accidental” aesthetics at play, not as by-products but as primary cultural contexts for the production of technology. Better yet, it is the […]
[…]between its memory and the possibilities of loving and thinking, here and now, animates a certain critical energy. This Provincetown of memory is a place of oceanic freedom. Going to the movies, sometimes with her mother, sometimes alone. The resource that is cinema, for the young: “Everyone thinks desire is make believe when it comes to famous people and movies. In that case, you can go all the way. Go for it.” Young Masha rides her bike around everywhere, with a headphone sound track, cruising with a kind of tomboy autonomy. “I was being the kind of boy I wanted […]
[…]“Without a high degree of ‘existential redundancy’–the constraints of the specific code of communication, codes of behavior, particular lexicons, contexts, intentions, the actual relationship between the sender and receiver, and so on—there is no signification.” (234) Information is not concerned with the systems (sender and receiver), which process it. Meaning, on the other hand, is. Thus, information is necessary for signification, but not sufficient.

[…]through evacuating its inherent emotional intensity. How can writing that seeks to maintain a critical distance adequately, or accurately, she asks, express or contain engagements with affect? While Houser does not discard critical distance, she rightly insists that we “must take methodological inspiration from the literature we analyze and bring different ways of knowing—from scientific experiment to embodied feeling—to bear on each other. Following this procedure, interconnectedness becomes method and not only theme or aspiration” (224). Throughout Ecosickness, Houser (re)incorporates language, which is alternately coded as scientific or affective, in order to undo the false dichotomy between reason and emotion. […]

[…]writing technology materially dependent on the interfacing of physics and mathematics (matter and code) that enabled a cascade of symbolic processes from the writing symbols through programming languages through machine language through differential voltages, and back. He conceptualized this double nature of digital code as an expression of the tension between forensic materiality and formal materiality. Screen presentation, data models and programming are formal material instantiations of processes that also have a forensic material instantiation at the nanoscale of magnetic processes. It is the allographic nature of code that enables it to represent multiple symbolic systems and multiple media materialities. […]
[…]about when the words disappear and the story space becomes immersive, but this assumes certain codes in the narrative that make for a smooth delivery. By contrast, modern and postmodern works of literature and film complicate the reader’s access to narrative space, either by limiting immersive possibilities or by using techniques to activate mental activity outside or parallel to the narrative space. We don’t have a word to properly describe the cognitive space of the reader, the way a text triggers personal trails of thought and imaginary possibilities of an emerging fiction. In Terminal Identity, Scott Bukatman compares the de-narrativized […]

SR: And then they can control tenure. They control and profit from tenure and that’s the problem, right? So, I’m thinking of those alternative structures and they can, even be […]
