WORK AND RESEARCHING
She has been researching and writing on hypertext
for more than seven years, focusing on the applicability of literary
theory, narratology and aesthetics to hypertext environments
.
Much of her work examines hypertext reading as a form of performance,
the effect of hypertext's displacement of closure on the act of reading
and how hypertexts can be designed to satisfy both conventional and
highly unconventional narrative reading strategies. As a Research Fellow
at the Brunel University (London) Centre for Research into Innovation,
Culture and Technology, she spent a year researching the uses of hypertext
and the social construction of digital technologies.
Her critical
work on hypertext has appeared in journals and collections in the US,
UK and Australia. Her short story, "I Have Said Nothing"
, unfortunately, is
available only from http://www.eastgate.com.
It's about 30 euros, and you might be able to just buy and download it.
Since the hypertext is built on a software platform that isn't just compatible
with HTML.
