Praxis-Pool >> Contributions - Seminars - Projects - Links - Lectures Offered by Roberto
Simanowski Since its excursion
into the Internet, a word is no longer just a word.
In cyberspace it can be animated (i.e., appear and
disappear, blink and change color) and engage in
new alliances with image, sound and film. Here
stories are sometimes non-linear, and their
composition and outcomes are often in the hands of
the readers themselves. What form does literature
take when it consists of these alliances and its
structure is so heavily defined and guided by the
reader (or user)? What new aesthetic possibilities
and temptations does this new
multimedia-storytelling bring with it? Can one
still speak of it as Literature? See as an expanded
version of the lecture the essay in
dichtung-digital: German
Digital Literature: A Survey
