Electronic Literature Collection, v. 1 Released Under a
Creative Commons License, the collection is "an anthology of 60 eclectic works of electronic literature," published online at
collection.eliterature.org.
My favorites among the collection are the non-texual, graphic novel-like multimedia stories. Including:
"Deviant: The Possession of Christian Shaw is presented in a visual and almost entirely non-textual way, although the piece has a textual basis and its narrative and defamiliarizing aspects can easily be seen. The piece's effect arises from how it cuts off possibilities, putting the reader at the mercy of her exploration history. An interface offers tiny "active" portals, which may or may not carry the story forward; a world changes scale, and unnerving events take some effort to figure out." Maybe it's the Halloween mood, but I love the dark storyline, great modern graphics, and witch-trial atmosphere. The changeable storyline is very "new media.""Urbanalities is a mash-up of Dadaist technique and VJ stylings, this Flash movie is the product of an "antagonist remix" by babel vs. escha. Seven scenes provide enigmatic observations on the nature of contemporary life, on seeing and being seen, understanding and miscommunication, destruction and creation. The texts in the piece are generated randomly as the piece runs, so the reader's experience of the piece is never exactly the same twice." Amazing graphics, short poems, and a musical sountrack - dada meets West Side Story.-thanks to gray for sending along the link and collection announcement!-

this whole notion of "e-literature" is curiouser and curiouser...a re-framing of the book as a quasi-closed space...a space of edges betweeen the putative inside and outside...I like Amanda's "de-familiarization" as a moment that allows us to see more clearly what we've been assuming...
