Das Mädchen
mit dem Flammenwerfer by Staffel, Wieser &
Porombka [German]
From Tim
Staffel's text "Das Mädchen mit dem
Flammenwerfer" a team of three people has created
an ambitious multimedia project about the
pyromaniac Tank-Girl. The story line was not
sacrificed to the pathos of emancipation and/or to
the dogma of interactivity. However, the spectacle
of images has the same weight as the necessity of
imagination in traditional text. It is an example
for how a piece can be translated into an other
medium, following that media's rules without
submitting totally to them.

Dominoa
[German]
Roberto
Simanowski investigates the prize winner of the
Marianne-von-Willemer-Competition for literature by
women on the Net. Whereas this project at the first
look seems to degrade text to a ball in a card
game, at the second look it seems to be a clever
temptation to read. However, at the third
look it still leaves a lot of questions open.

Hilfe! by
Susanne Berkenheger [German]
Roberto
Simanowski explores Berkenheger's new text
labyrinth which presents its characters in
different Java Windows and turns the screen into a
stage. This graphical choreography of text is an
amazing version of 'kinetic poetry'. However, one
wonders why the man character continues to change
her/his gender and what the deeper meaning of this
piece is.

Beim
Bäcker [German]
Roberto
Simanowski introduces the German "Veteran" of
collaborative writings "In the bakery". He
investigates the relationship among the authors of
this erotic story and presents some characteristics
of collaborative writing projects such as the
occupation or negation of the predecessor's
contribution and the egoism behind the
'collaboration'.
