MESSAGE MORPHS THE MEDIA

 

 

What is this?

This is the 5th Hypertext Writers' Workshop, a part of the Eleventh ACM >Hypertext 01 conference. This workshop will provide a much-needed physical setting for writers, readers, and system developers to share works in progress and discuss techniques and strategies to improve hyperliteracy. Participants are strongly encouraged to attend the rest of the Hypertext 00 conference, as well.

Where and when

The Fifth Hypertext Writers Workshop at HT01 will be held in conjunction with HT01 in University of Aarhus, Århus, Denmark. August August 14 to August 18, 2001.

CyberFlats will be in in the same place Aug 20-24 2000--a select group of writers and programmers will get together to write code and literature at the same time.

And why?

Hypertexts comprise a range of media, techniques, programs, and systems. Authors have developed strategies to use these systems to explore, challenge, and play with reader expectations.

  • Promote and improve hyperliteracy and quality hypertext writing (both fiction and nonfiction)
  • Be informed about new projects and techniques
  • Examine hypertext writing, ask questions of the authors, and discuss important "invisible" aspects such as structure, decision-making, and technical details.

Who will be there?

Participants come from a broad range of hypertext systems developers, content developers, and readers.
