. CONT3XT.NET.NEWS #02.07 CULTURE | INFORMATION | MEDIA | FRUITS OF EVERYDAY LIFE -------------------------------------------------------- [Re: magAzine] | #004 Curating Ambiguity In autumn 2006 the Electronic Literature Organization (ELO) released the Electronic Literature Collection Volume One, including selected works in New Media forms such as Hypertext Fiction, Kinetic Poetry, generative and combinatory forms, Network Writing, Codework, 3D, and Narrative Animations. One of the main common characteristics of Web-based literary products is that they often can be read (or viewed, listened, played with, used) in multifaceted ways. Accordingly the curation of Electronic Literature is challenged by ambiguity and heterogeneity on different levels. In issue #004 of [Re: magAzine] by CONT3XT.NET, Scott Rettberg -- co-curator of the anthology and co-founder of the ELO -- talks about different ways of contextualizing, re-presenting and archiving E-Literature: "The more context, the more documentation available to the reader, the better." __ to the interview with Scott Rettberg: http://re.cont3xt.net/pdf/Re_004.pdf __ to former interviews: http://re.cont3xt.net/archive.html (Live Cinema, Locative Media, Amazon Noir) -------------------------------------------------------- [Re: magAzine] | #004 Mehrdeutigkeit Kuratieren Im Herbst 2006 hat die Electronic Literature Organization (ELO) den ersten Band der Electronic Literature Collection veroeffentlicht. Die Anthologie umfasst literarisch-kuenstlerische Arbeiten in Form Neuer Medien wie Hypertext Fiction, Kinetic Poetry, generative und kombinatorische Netzliteratur, Network Writing, Codework, 3D, und Narrative Animations. Eines der zentralen Charakteristika von Web-basierter Literatur ist, dass sie haeufig auf mehrere Arten gelesen (gesehen, gehoert, gespielt, benutzt) werden kann. Dem Kuratieren von Literatur im Internet stehen Mehrdeutigkeit und Heterogenitaet auf mehreren Ebenen gegenueber. In Ausgabe #004 des [Re: magAzine] von CONT3XT.NET spricht Scott Rettberg, Co-Kurator der Anthologie und Mitbegruender der ELO, ueber unterschiedliche Methoden der Kontextualisierung, Darstellung und Archivierung von E-Literatur: "The more context, the more documentation available to the reader, the better." __ zum Interview mit Scott Rettberg: http://re.cont3xt.net/pdf/Re_004.pdf __ zu frueheren Interviews: http://re.cont3xt.net/archive.html (Live Cinema, Locative Media, Amazon Noir) -------------------------------------------------------- CONT3XT.NET.NEWS ? a newsletter by CONT3XT.NET <http://cont3xt.net/> If you do not want to receive any more newsletters klick: http://cont3xt.net/div/phplist/lists/?p=unsubscribe&uid=56ff393807c87ed0fbb460fa779a12b7 To update your preferences and to unsubscribe visit: http://cont3xt.net/div/phplist/lists/?p=preferences&uid=56ff393807c87ed0fbb460fa779a12b7 -------------------------------------------------------- CONT3XT.NET http://cont3xt.net culture. information. media. fruits of everyday life. zvr: 999765999 vienna, austria -- Powered by PHPlist, www.phplist.com -- _______________________________________________ nettime-ann mailing list nettime-ann@nettime.org http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-ann
