Ah, the digital era's literary masterpiece: a "403 Forbidden" error, now with a side of #nginx. 📚🚫 Didion's existential musings have clearly transcended into the realm of server permissions, where the only thing slouching is the web admin's competence. 🤦‍♂️🔒

Oh, the irony! 🧐 An article about Beowulf's "What" that opens with a demand for #JavaScript as if ancient epics were composed in HTML. 🍪 But sure, let's pause our digital lives for a cookie break to decode literary history. 🙄

Ah, the "Ortega Hypothesis"—the latest thrilling addition to the literary canon of internet trivia! 🎉 Apparently, the real challenge isn't understanding it, but navigating through a maze of digital etiquette rules and obscure hyperlinks that nobody asked for. 🤖🔗

🤔 Oh, rejoice! 📚 Standard Ebooks is here to save us from the tyranny of poorly formatted public domain texts! Because nothing screams "liberated" like a laboriously re-typeset 19th-century novel! 🙄 Just the #revolution we needed, if you’re a font enthusiast with too much time. 💁‍♂️✨

Hello, updated #introduction!

I'm a #poet, #professor, literary #translator, new media #artist, and #SFF writer.

I work in #experimental #poetics, speculative fiction, digital-visual collage, and hybrid works that blend the textual with the digital (including experimental film, #videogames, glitched imagery, and AI generated artwork).

I'm also an avid D&D player and Dungeon Master.

Are deconstruction and new historicism still key interpretative and explanatory frameworks in literary studies today? There are also some that are less than 60 years old, surely? How about, for starters, new materialism, posthumanism, ecocriticism, epistemic justice, electronic literature, perhaps even digital humanities.

We turn from the thought-provoking presentation from Alan Sondheim to our session on #Teaching #DigitalLiterature and #elit with Emma Stanley, Emily Johnson, and Anastasia Salter @AnaSalter. #Unconf23

We're now having a look at @amiraha

Fresh off the web! Here's a new article where I talk about the relationship between digital technologies and climate damage, looking at a selection of works of digital literature (#elit) that expose their entanglement within material networks of mineral extraction and energy consumption... I hope this becomes my new book so let me know what y'all think 🙏

That was a brilliant conference on #Hypertext, #DigitalLiterature, #DH! Great papers & conversations 👉 Hypertext still has a lot to offer - for an enormous range of applications, such as reading digital comics, fiction, crafting #VR, AcademicWriting. Massive shoutout to the program committee for this excellent event 👏: sas.ac.uk/margins22
Interesting fact: Senate House, our venue, inspired #Orwell's image of the "Ministry of Truth."

I am still not used to posting regularly here but here is a lovely thing for you to consider... Submit a proposal to the Electronic Literature Organization's conference and media arts festival this summer in BEAUTIFUL Coimbra, Portugal?

ps> the #ucstrike continues, don't forget #ucfairnow

#Introduction: I'm a #Poet, #Professor, #Translator, and #NewMedia #Artist. I work in #Experimental #Poetics, #DigitalLiterature (#eLit), #Erasure, #Collage, and #Hybrid works that blend the textual with the digital (including #PoetryFilm, #VideoGames, #GlitchArt, and #AIArt).

My most recent book, SCARLET, is a collection of digital-visual #poems created through #erasure of the novel The Scarlet Plague, by Jack London, collaged with glitched imagery from everyday life during the pandemic.

I've now learned I should do an #introduction so:

I'm Alex Saum-Pascual. I am an associate professor at UC Berkeley, where I teach #digitalliterature (or #elit) and #contemporary #Spanish #literature and #Iberianstudies. I am mostly in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese and the Berkeley Center for New Media #bcnm.

I am also a digital #poet, and my work engages #environmental and #feminist questions (surprise, so does my recent scholarship!).

And.... I am also from Spain, so I write in both English, Spanish and, most often, Spanglish.
