John Smith
reviewed Cybertext: Perspectives on Ergodic Literature on February 08, 2008 Cybertext: Perspectives on Ergodic Literature
"Cybertext" was the most useful book for a paper on "House of Leaves." It's a comprehensive look at the history, nature, and possible future of ergodic texts (that is, texts that require effort from the user on a level higher than simply reading and/or turning pages). He talks about everything from the I Ching to the types of computer hyperlink puzzle games online to programs designed to generate text in a non-linear narrative fashion, all the way to the C.A.V.E. facility in Brown, where electronic texts are written for their highly experimental MFA program in fiction.
