[…]the contradictory potential of the politics. As such, bookishness offers analytical potential and critical insights to reflect on feminist knowledge within digital culture and contributes to broader discussions on knowledge production in a digital age. Not only would this be the future discussion of bookishness, but it also inspires much discussion at the intersections of affect, technology, aesthetics, and politics in our post-digital world.

[…]annotations are evidence of his writerly attention to what he read, and his separate working notes are often where these concerns are centralized. List-making, in these working notes, was an essential part of Gaddis’s workflow: hundreds of such sheets reside in his archive. Our most representative roadmap for Gaddis’s intellectual concerns in the late 1950s, pertaining to Stebbing and the PP, might well be the following page, composed in a fine calligraphic hand, from a folder of loose 1950s notes toward the player project (see Figure 1). This document is exceptional for our study: it presents a host of critical […]
[…]the students to stand on their desks and read these very strange things. It was fun! So I started working with constraints because it was a for collaboration purposes and for teaching purposes. Rob Wittig What are your thoughts about the possible community building potential of Netprov, and/or Netprov as a tool to build bridges in a polarized society? William Gillespie You’re asking me about the potential for community building of Netprov and the potential of Netprov to build bridges in a polarized society? God damn, I’m going to need an ellipsis!

[…]Words, contagion… infinite incubation—buried deep… within cellular structures—whispering code… the epidemic… of syntax. Bacterial in nature… or viral—language, a parasite—a mutation—lurking beneath the tissue of the tongue—infected… the throat—a maze… of Greek heroes and… Egyptian deities… spread through osmosis—dripping… from the mouths of… pirates… navigating the seas of… reason. Ulysses… eye… a scalpel—slicing through… Could any of the pseudo cutups we generated be passed off as fragments of Burroughs? Yes, at least to non-experts. That would accord with the conclusion in a recent paper which recounts carrying out a similar attempt to mimic the style of H. P. Lovecraft. They […]

[…]and writing – a process which I discussed in some other ebr publications as well as in Switching Codes (2011). At the same time that I was working on that series of nonfiction works in the desert southwest of the United States, I was starting more experimental collaborations with fiction writers and poets. One of the first of these was a fragmented panoramic narrative project filmed in Mexico City with author Deb Olin Unferth and entitled Something That Happened Only Once. In this project, song fragments narrativize the actions of individuals picture upon a rotating panorama in impossible ways, spinning […]
[…]this a little bit, was the idea that in your scholarship, you have a lot of references to game studies and media studies, but also the psychology and psychotherapy, all the way back to Jung, to the present, neurobiology and cognition and theories like Joseph Campbell, who are kind of connecting story and psychology. So, there’s a lot of connections to narratological ways of thinking and really exciting interdisciplinarity, I guess you’d say, which is one of the things we’re trying to think a lot about with the Center for Digital Narrative. What happens when we bring these different perspectives […]

[…]work, bridging the gap between cultural studies, history and sociology, is focused on critical animal studies and environmental humanities. In her PhD thesis she analyzed cultural and ideological ramifications of rat control programs. Currently she works on changes in breeding practices in rural Poland before 1989, in order to understand conceptual and material relations between animals, socialism, agriculture and modernity. Her book “Species Cleansing. The Cultural Practice of Rat Control” was published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht Verlag (Imprint of BRILL Deutschland) in 2024.
