Off Center Episode 8: Fanfiction as a Form of Digital Narrativity with Flourish Klink

[…]feedback loops happening, but it really is a networked thing. And you can see this in the way that groups treat characters like you’ll have fandom, and everybody will converge on an idea of who that character is. And sometimes it’s quite different than what’s in the original work, but because everybody has been writing these stories, they come together as one characterization. FK: The other thing I was going to mention is that it can be tempting to say, well, there’s fan studies and there’s all this stuff and that’s basically social science research. Maybe you could do literary […]

Off Center Episode 9: Hypertext as Technology and Literature with Robert Arellano

[…]which I guess is ultimately text. Another thing I remember about it is, I’m not sure it was working even at the time, but there’s a soundtrack, right? RA: I managed to get it working again because RealAudio Player got completely left behind, and so I’ve since reloaded the 8-tracks as MP3’s. There were suggestions of which tracks to play with which chapters. Another note here is that my good old friend Colin Gagon and Will Oldham, there he is again, were the collaborators on the soundtrack. Colin and I played with and toured with Will for many years in the […]

Off Center Episode 10: Immersive Storytelling in Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality with Caitlin Fisher

[…]lab. It’s been just this kind of funny thing that my entire career I’ve generally I moved from working in a solitary practice to working in physical spaces, generally in teams, working collaboratively. SR: I want to read the list because you’re the Director of the Immersive Storytelling Lab at York University, the Augmented Reality Lab, and the Founding Director of the Future Cinema Lab. That’s a lot of labs. CF: It’s a lot of labs. SR: Can you say just a little bit about what all those things are and how you juggle it all? CF: Yeah. So, the […]

A Personal Twine Story

[…]of a certain size. So I adapted TiddlyWiki for longer works. I printed out the TiddlyWiki source code and took it with me on the subway on the way to work. I jotted notes in the margin and highlighted things I didn’t understand. Based on that, I built small command-line tools that allowed me to work in a way that made sense to me, but eventually generated TiddlyWikis. Of course, TiddlyWiki had an open source license, so I could do that. I think platforms build on each other. They don’t usually emerge from nothing. They certainly react to each other. […]

Off Center Episode 13: Creative AI with David Jhave Johnston

[…]the noninvasive brain sensors, because they are now beginning to track brain signals, they can decode speech. They can decode what you are going to say. They can decode the music you are listening to. They can decode what you are seeing. They can do these under specific conditions, which are usually fMRI, but also magnetic encephalopathy, and in the last two weeks there was a merger between Forest Neurotech and Butterfly. Butterfly produces this handheld ultrasound sensor, which, in the medical context, is very, very helpful. SR: I know a digital artist who’s moved to that company. JJ: Wow. […]

ebr at the crossroads

All of them are based on the idea of ebr’s intertext, in “contrast to the decontextualized and ahistorical approach to presenting essays” in outlets such as Academia, ResearchGate, and such like (Fan 2023). ebr, circa 2025, is now in the process of gathering contributions whose authors (or readers) have self-consciously […]

Working Progress, Working Title [Automystifstical Plaice]

[…]Their collaboration also became the springboard for John Matthias’s “Working Progress, Working Title [Automystifstical Plaice].” In what some have called his richest poem, Matthias allows the factual details of the Lamarr-Antheil story to expand into a meditation on the “progress” of sound-and-noise, film, film history, history generally — and how the “frequency hoping” of technology, representation, systems of constraint, and sources of power go into the composition of what we call culture. A discussion of “Working Progress” and other Matthias poems can be found in the current issue of Samizdat. Click here to go to the […]

Critical Ecologies

[…]unity. It falls victim to overambition, missing attainable goals in the pursuit of a new ecocritical understanding. The first section of the book examines the history and future of wilderness and features essays by R. Edward Grumbine, Denis Cosgrove, and Max Oelschlaeger. Each writer treats the dual concepts of “wilderness” and “wildness” but there is little common ground among them as to definitions or methodology. As a result, the authors’ collective efforts to illuminate these terms serves instead to obfuscate an already vexing issue of terminology. Differentiating between wilderness and wildness forms a crucial subtext throughout the book, but only […]
