HYPERTEXT: Poetry

In the middle of this 100 Days Project I’d like to point out that our chief storyteller here has just been published in the latest issue of the literary journal online,  #10 Drunken Boat.

Steve Ersinghaus‘ piece titled That Night, is hypertext poetry. Steve’s hypertext is a beautifully spun piece of eloquence and imagery and employs beyond the usual hypertext format the element of stretchtext which enhances the interpretation of the piece through visual effects. Kudos as well to James Revillini for his work in jQuery on this.

I’m hoping that more and more people realize the abilities of hypertext and overcome their fear and preconceived notions of seeing hypertext in narrative poetry and story as distractive elements and take the time to enjoy this exciting new trend in reading.
