TheGreatHatsby is the name of an AIM bot that instigates conversation between two totally unrelated people. Its name is a play on words from the book The Great Gatsby. It is a relay bot that retrieves the most recently updated Live Journal posts and obtains the AIM screenname of the posting user. It then sends the user the message “i say, old bean, have you seen my hat?”

Someone sent this to me in response to the “Word Disassociation” that Adam had sent on. Not quite the same thing, but you Maya-heads will get a kick out of it — electronic writing in Maya! There is a version in French and English.

Net’s flavor of the month…

A IS FOR APPLE
http://aisforapple.net
“A is for Apple is an interactive work that investigates a cryptography of the apple. Using an ever expanding series of associative links, the work looks for hidden meanings, coincidences and insights that stem from the apple. This leads to a vast web of references from western metaphysics, popular culture, the history of cryptography, ideas of language, and psychoanalytic theory.”

MEANWHILE
http://meanwhile.ca
“Godard once said that a film must have a beginning, middle and an end but not necessarily in that order. MEANWHILE explores new ways to detour from the well-trodden path of narrative by giving the viewer a choice at the end of each scene as to which direction in time they want to move in the story.
The nine scenes in this screwball comedy can be seen in any order; each path revealing the intricate interconnectivity of the characters follies, obsessions, and ambitions.”

Here’s a really successful electronic writing piece that takes great advantage of 360 degree photography, sound and interface. It’s a collaboration between John Cayley, Giles Perring, Douglas Cape, and others – they call it “broadband interactive drama.” Definitely worth checking out.

I forgot to mention in class that all of Eunoia, and a bunch of other (weirder) stuff by Christian Bok is online:

I recommend some of the sound poetry, like “ubu hubub,” to clean your ears out.

Here’s a project that can get pretty engrossing.

I can see this as a form of “electronic writing” because of its dependence on the web, its flitting between genres in the writing – from poetry to other forms of discourse – and its use of “text/image” in a weird and fascinating way.

Read the introduction to get a sense of what they’re after.
