Morellet used geometry and mathematical progressions in his art,
I have always felt art and math have this connection with each other, the closest word that comes to mind is symbiosis; In the sense that alone each concept is understood and can be done separately but joining the two can help create this beautiful almost living being.
But beyond working with basic text animation and variations on hypertext, other artists have approached electronic writing as a way to experiment with light versions of artificial intelligence
I'm excited to get to learn the versions of literature E-lit will bring to life that incorporate a.i., as experimental designs, video games and websites in general.
Grigar further argues that as video games and other popular culture digital media forms mainstream into the academy, so too will Electronic Literature.
I agree and feel that our understanding of what E-lit is can and will change throughout our lives, merging and changing with the different types of media's that show up, video games with story progression could even be considered E-lit.
"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"
Taking into account this definition, E-lit is best experienced through electronic devices, which if I were to guess means the creative aspects in literature involves a few sensory experiences that are not as easily available consuming a physical book.
literature expressed in yet another medium, the digital, then it can easily be regarded as the continuation of a very long tradition, one that is exploring the affordances and constraints of this new medium
Having literature in a new form not only helps us prolong it's existence but also helps more people have the ability it's access. # d004x
