Searching the web for the use of the terms “electronic literature” and “digital literature”

During the Digital Methods mini-workshop that Richard Rogers and Sabine Niederer held for us here in Bergen today I realized that I could quite easily continue my explorations of which words people use about the field of electronic literature using web material. In […]

Google form fiction (at least, one assumes it is fiction)

A few days ago, I received an odd email, apparently a followup to a first mail that I don’t think I ever received. I almost deleted it instantly as spam, but after a second glance I decided to try that URL. It […]
