As these texts query the digital technics entering into textual practices, subjectivity, spatial practices and social networks, lived space, nation, and economic circulation, they reconceive their own literary print narrative methods and material modes of circulation in order to elaborate on unnoticed potentialities and limits of digital technics, providing a crucial means to reorient digital cultures of the present"--Provided by publisher.Experimental fiction, AmericanHistory and criticismLiterature and the InternetUnited StatesHypertext fictionHistory and criticismHuman body and technology in literatureLiterature and technologyUnited StatesAmerican fictionHistory and criticismExperimental fiction, AmericanHistory and criticism.Literature and the InternetHypertext fictionHistory and criticism.Human body and technology in literature.Literature and technologyAmerican fictionHistory and criticism.813.009/356LIT004020SOC052000bisacshShackelford Laura904657MiUMiUBOOK9910140467503321Tactics of the human2023005UNINA
