Electronic Literature Lab

Coming in December: A VR experience w/physical archives held in The NEXT. Imagine the beach ball Richard Holeton used in the 2000s when he performed Figurski at Findhorn on Acid, modeled as a 3D object & accessible via a Quest 2 & 3, & the Apple Vision Pro vimeo.com/1023715967

The Holly, Richard, Greg, and I with Holly and Richard's family visiting ELL today. Lots of happy people!

Coming in July. A radio story and an episode connected by the word "Nightfall." The story adapts Issac Asimov's original for radio. A world with six suns prepares for the coming of darkness and the first sight of things called "stars." More info at website reimaginedradio.fm

@babysbbreath @eliterature We’d love to have the budget of a Harvard lab to do more. We do all we can with what we’ve got. There’s just too much to do.

This week's Framework:afield edition revisits the second edition of the series, produced in the United Kingdom by artist, author, podcaster, and knitter Felicity Ford (knitsonik.com), first broadcast on May 19, 2006. See our website radionouspace.fm for more.

The lab just finished reconstructing Christy Sheffield Sanford's "Red Mona," a net art piece published originally in 1997. The story, based on Guy de Maupassant's "Petit Soldat," unfolds over 45 flash cards. dtc-wsuv.org/projects/red-m… @WSUVancouver @eliterature

We gave 4 tours today to members of the WSU Advisory Committees members and had the time of our lives showing off the vintage computers and games in the lab. Thanks, @WSUVancouver for including us in this great event!

The @CMDC_WSUV students are working on Deena's uncompleted hypertext, Stone Moons, which she started years ago on Storyspace. It's a massive work, even in its current state, with 6628 hyperlinks. & yes, that is our "Molar Mac" that they are using to access the work @WSUVancouver

Deena was the 2023-24 Artist in Residence in the Electronic Literature Lab at @WSUVancouver

We updated our lab's History page of our website. It now features a timeline and images. Thank you, @_hollyjune, for creating this gorgeous design! #elitlab dtc-wsuv.org/electronic-lit…

What every digital textual scholar loves: The original edits of a hypertext novel. Here is Richard Smyth's Genetis, edited by Cramer.

This week's Framework (#887, 28 Apr-May 05), entitled "Whisper to Dragons," was produced by <orogenetics.org>Michael Northam in the United States, using recordings made in South Asia during years of traveling and living there. Thanks for listening radionouspace.fm

We love Re-Imagined Radio! Listen today!

ELL has expanded into a new space for the physical archives it is holding for The NEXT. It now consists of three spaces 1) the Reading Room, 2) the Archival Space, and 3) the Sound and Video Studio @eliterature

We received the WSUV Mini-Grant for the project, “Spatial Computing for Use of Physical Artifacts Held in Museum & Library Repositories,” in support of developing XR capabilities for the Visualization space of The NEXT. We kick the project off May 6. @eliterature @WSUVancouver

Kudos for Vancouver DTC major James Lesperance who was selected for a WSU Vancouver Undergraduate Research Fellow Award. His project, "Programming a Method for Documenting NetProv," allows him to work with @Netprov_RobWit. dtc-wsuv.org/wp/ell/2024/04… @eliterature @WSUVancouver

Happy to let you know that we've added The Rob Wittig Collection to The NEXT. Currently we're presenting the 4 early hypertext works he produced. We've written a grant that will allow us to develop a platform for showcasing his NetProv works in the future. the-next.eliterature.org/collections/46

Week 4 of Women's History Month & we're honoring Marisa Parham. Her ".break .dance" is a mash up of images, video, animation, & text inhabiting “spaces of possibility” around, across, and beyond the screen. We are so pleased to feature it in Vision Unbound the-next.eliterature.org/exhibition/vis…
