Electronic Literature
Electronic literature or digital literature is a genre of literature where digital capabilities such as interactivity, multimodality or Generative literature, algorithmic text generation are used aesthetically. Works of electronic literature are usually intended to be read on digital devices, such as computers, Tablet computer, tablets, and mobile phones. They cannot be easily printed, or cannot be printed at all, because elements crucial to the work cannot be carried over onto a printed version. The first literary works for computers, created in the 1950s, were computer programs that generated poems or stories, now called generative literature. In the 1960s experimental poets began to explore the new digital medium, and the first early text-based games were created. Interactive fiction became a popular genre in the late 1970s and 1980s, with a thriving online community in the 2000s. In the 1980s and 1990s hypertext fiction begun to be published, first on floppy disks and later ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Library (computing)
In computing, a library is a collection of System resource, resources that can be leveraged during software development to implement a computer program. Commonly, a library consists of executable code such as compiled function (computer science), functions and Class (computer programming), classes, or a library can be a collection of source code. A resource library may contain data such as images and Text string, text. A library can be used by multiple, independent consumers (programs and other libraries). This differs from resources defined in a program which can usually only be used by that program. When a consumer uses a library resource, it gains the value of the library without having to implement it itself. Libraries encourage software reuse in a Modular programming, modular fashion. Libraries can use other libraries resulting in a hierarchy of libraries in a program. When writing code that uses a library, a programmer only needs to know how to use it not its internal d ...

Drunken Boat (literary Journal)
''Drunken Boat'' is one of the first online literary magazines, publishing electronic literature, digital poetry and digital art. It was founded in 1999 by Ravi Shankar (poet) and Michael Mills. History The journal website and some other sources states that ''Drunken Boat'' was founded in 1999; a few sources say 2000, including an interview with editor Shankar himself. This confusion may also be due to another online literary journal with almost the same name that started in spring 2000, ''The Drunken Boat'', edited by Rebecca Seiferle. Seiferle's journal was also online, but published traditional poetry and commentaries, not using multimedia in the way that Shankar and Mills' ''Drunken Boat'' did. From the start, ''Drunken Boat'' included multimedia elements, using the possibilities that the internet and the computer gave for new genres of poetry, literature and art. Issues included poetry, sound fields and news about poetry. The journal currently describes its content as inc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

A significant portion of current publications of poetry are available either only online or via some combination of online and offline publication. Digital poetry types hypertext, kinetic poetry, computer generated animation, digital visual poetry, interactive poetry, code poetry, experimental video poetry, virtual poetry (that uses virtual reality systems), and poetries that take advantage of the programmable n ...

Historically, the representation of 1 evolved from ancient Sumerian and Babylonian symbols to the modern Arabic numeral. In mathematics, 1 is the multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. 1 is by convention not considered a prime number. In digital technology, 1 represents the "on" state in binary code, the foundation of computing. Philosophically, 1 symbolizes the ultimate reality or source of existence in various traditions.
