Geospatial aesthetics : time, space, agency and movement in electronic writing

Maria Angel, Anna Gibbs

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

It has been clear for some time that electronic 'literature' and new media art are challenging older aesthetic forms and concepts of readerly and writerly agency, and that this transformation in what constitutes agency is taking place through changes in the ways these works enact or perform time and space. In this paper we want to analyse the conditions of this transformation - and the subjectivity it produces - with reference to two broad generic distinctions, locative work on the one hand, and programmable texts on the other.
