Title of the paper : “You”
Author or topic: Judy Malloy
Abstract : I have chosen a hypertext novel written by Judy
Malloy. This author is, primarily, a poet whose works inhabit the intersection of hypernarrative,
magic realism,
and information art. Malloy is also a new media literature and hypertext
fiction pioneer.
First
of all, I think that it is would be interesting to talk briefly about her
works. In 1986, Malloy wrote
“Uncle Roger”,
her first online hyperfiction project
with links that took the narrative different directions depending on choices
made by the reader. In 1989, Malloy's hyperfiction
work “its name was Penelope”
was exhibited, gaining publication in 1993 by Eastgate Systems. In 1991, he wrote “You”.
Malloy then wrote “l0ve0ne”, published in 1994
by Eastgate Web Workshop as their first work. Malloy
created Making Art
Online in 1994. One of the first arts websites, Making Art Online is
currently hosted by the Walker Art Center.Malloy
worked for Arts Wire, a program of the New York Foundation for the Arts
(NYFA) from its early origins in 1993. She began serving as editor of the
online periodical Arts Wire Current
in March 1996. She continued as editor through the periodical's name change to NYFA Current in November, 2002, until
March 2004. Judy Malloy is the editor of Women,
Art & Technology, published in 2003 by MIT Press, 2003, and she
currently hosts the Art California Web.
“You” is
the work that I have chosen because it is a love story, an
interactively created data structure that simulates an intimate relationship
between two people. I also think it is a
poem with multiple contributors, and the way it has been put together is
interesting.
I am going to divide
my work into three sections. The first will be an introduction.. I will
them discuss the concept of time and space in the novel (this is
the topic that I have chosen). Finally, I will make a conclusion by analyzing
the most important aspects of this work.
Auto-evaluation: I think that I deserve
the grade of range of seven, because the poem is very difficult and it
sometimes use words of
French that I don’t understand the meaning of in some
verses.
