unfoldings
It sounds like Imaginary Year might be the kind of thing that this call for works is looking for. I think.
"Unfoldings are intrinsic dimensions that open indefinitely outward, potentially encompassing an infinite expansion of space. Like an inflating balloon, the computer interface is also a phenomenon whose infinite writing surface is situated in ever-present temporal and incremental space, perpetually dividing itself to reveal new moments of present-tense textual time, and whose spatial dimensions are performed via the instantaneity of mouse clicks and real time navigation. A temporal surface like the interface is a self-contained discourse network and an organic system; such a system is also familiar to us in the guise of the body, a system that is both frame and material for its own performative narratives. This expression of embodied presence is the world we navigate in an electronic text." Labels: writing |
