Manifeste des Digital humanities – THATCamp Paris

Au cours de ces deux journées, nous avons discuté, échangé, réfléchi ensemble à ce que sont les digital humanities et tenté d’imaginer et d’inventer ce qu’elles pourraient devenir. À l’issue de ces deux jours qui ne sont qu’une étape, nous proposons aux communautés de recherche et à tous ceux qui participent à la création, à l’édition, à la valorisation ou à la conservation des savoirs un manifeste des digital humanities. I. About GrinUGR. La denominación GrinUGR proviene de “GRupo de INternet de la Universidad de GRanada”, un sintagma que el proceloso mundo de la tecnología y su impacto social ha ido superando, en un constante proceso de redefinición.

This is the abstract of the talk I will be giving at the Hall Center for Humanities at KU as part of the Digital Humanities Seminar on March 25th.

Infinite E-Lit: A Look from Hispanic Legacies

As indicated in the title, this talk is part of the larger research/curatorial project Hispanic Legacies in Electronic Literature that I’ve been working on with Alex Saum-Pascual for the last few months. As the whole project is still a work in progress, please excuse the plethora of developing ideas and feel free to provide constructive feedback. I’m hoping to share the slides soon too. In this paper I propose a juxtaposition between Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges’ imagined figures of infinity such as “The Library of Babel,” “The Aleph,” and “The Book of Sand” and contemporary examples of Electronic Literature (E-Lit) that analogously and literally enact endlessness in reading and writing. Mark Sample Joins ELO Board. Pathfinders. Vispo ~ Langu(im)age: interactive, visual, and sound poetry by Jim Andrews. “Enigma n” and “Seattle Drift” by Jim Andrews: The Cauldron & Net Editions – I ♥ E-Poetry.

When Jim Andrews published these poems in Cauldron& Net, Volume 1 in 1999, their original DHTML and JavaScript codes were compatible with the two main Web browsers of their time: Netscape Navigator 4 and Internet Explorer 4 (IE).

“Enigma n” and “Seattle Drift” by Jim Andrews: The Cauldron & Net Editions – I ♥ E-Poetry

This was during the peak of what is known as the “first browser war” in which IE became the dominant browser in the market. At the time, each browser was implementing code differently, creating code incompatibilities that led to the practice of detecting browsers to redirect readers to different versions of the document, or determining what part of the code was executed in a specific session. Some writers opted to pick a browser and directed readers to view the work on that one, while others sought cross-browser compatibility. Enigma n home page.

I like following them, and I like making them. I also like introducing my students to bots as one way to do creative things in a networked digital context. That’s way, back in 2013, I cobbled together a simple tool built on a Google Spreadsheets that lets anyone create a simple bot without having to write any code.

There are many other ways to make a Twitter Bot, but I like this approach for its clarity and hopefully its accessibility for non-programmers to start understanding how to think about language through programming. Today, I’m releasing an upgraded and much improved version of that tool. Some Caveats. Generated Detective #1. Generated Detective #1 by Greg Borenstein. You Must Be.

How Machines Write Poetry. As a teenager in Vermont, Sarah Harmon used Java to create a computer program that wrote poetry. She named it OGDEN. Then she submitted one of its poems in 2008 to her high-school literary magazine under the pen name Dan Goshen, an anagram of Ogden Nash. “They accepted it,” Harmon laughs, “although they did say all these funny things about how abstract it was.” OGDEN was nothing fancy, she says. It followed predefined rules of grammar and structure to compose poetical-sounding snippets. These days, Harmon is a computer science PhD student at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

New forms of immersive storytelling are becoming more and more popular, featuring transmedia components and merging narrative modules with gaming elements, as video games’ technology has been particularly influential in the development of these new narrative forms. Specifically, storytelling is getting more immersive and participative, in the sense that audience is engaged in a more interactive way and the environment is evolving into a more complex transmedia scenario.

Perfect examples of this new immersive narrative form are the most recent works of Andy Campbell. One of them, Pluto, created by Andy Campbell together with Australian digital artist Mez Breeze, has just been awarded with The Space Open Call and Tumblr International Price 2015. Pluto is a transmedia work featuring immersive video game elements and digital storytelling; as per the artists’ words, it is a: “storyworld where perceptions are stretched beyond the ‘real’ as you [think you] know it”. Digital poet builds world’s largest science fiction game - Scimex. From QUT It's X Files meets HP Lovecraft - an interactive science fiction whodunit on a digital canvas that was itself considered science fiction only five years ago. Brisbane-based digital poet Jason Nelson has created one of the world's first - and certainly the biggest - speculative fiction games ever built for large, public touchscreen displays as part of his digital writing residency at Queensland University of Technology (QUT).

Part video game, part puzzle, part electronic literature and all-interactive, Cryptext invites you to uncover the details behind a secret government program building advanced alien and supernatural technologies.

Let me jump right into the heart of my topic, by presenting two examples. The first, Image Fugurator, a project by Julius von Bismarck which won the Prize Ars Electronica 2008 in the category Interactive Art at the Cyberarts Festival in Linz, Austria, inverts the functioning of a regular camera. Whereas in a normal camera the light projected by objects is captured unto film, with Image Fugurator, an image stored on film within the camera is briefly projected onto the external world when the flash goes on. The whole process is triggered when the camera senses other flashes in the vicinity - this is to say, when other people are trying to photograph the same scene. Starwars_one_letter.

Electronic Literature is an emergent literary form and academic field, whose genesis in the U.S. can be traced, as mentioned elsewhere on this website, to the work by Michael Joyce, afternoon: a story.

As a form, it can be described as "literary works created with the use of a computer for the electronic medium such that they cannot be experienced in any meaningful way without the mediation of an electronic device" (Grigar, "The Present [Future] of Electronic Literature," 128-9); as a field, it is building through online journals and sites, like Hyperrhiz, ebr, Hermaneia, the Iowa Review Web, Leonardo Electronic Almanac, Turbulence, Drunken Boat, and Authoring Software; a growing body of print publications like N.

While in Europe the term "Digital Literature" is used to refer to Electronic Literature, in the U.S. digital literature is generally seen as print-based literary work digitalized for the web and stand-alone technologies like a CD-ROM. "The 24-Hr.
