On Hyperverses

Hyperverses is a place to explore the meeting of technology and literature. It has a heavy focus on hypermedia, hypertext, and electronic literature.

This site is also a playground for me to develop hypermedia practices. Pages may bump their shins against browser changes. Links that you click on may not do what you expect.

Why Build Hyperverses?

Two things brought these topics onto my radar. First, I came across an article that muses on what prevented hypertext from ushering in a new era of literature. Then I discovered Steve Klabnik’s Hypermedia API Reading List. Which led me down enough search trails that at some point I realized I’d developed a minor obsession. And how better to celebrate such an obsession than by blathering about it on the internet?
