Espen Aarseth

Digital Textuality

Anyone interested in Hayles' discussion of Aarseth might want to check out a site I was working on last semester. I never finished the rest of the site, but I did get a lot up there on Aarseth. This link goes to a discussion of Aarseth's textonomy (the basic categories he develops to explore a text's properties).

I once vowed that no one would be allowed to look on these pages, but perhaps they are worth sharing. Just, please, recognize that they are my first attempts at web design and should be treated like a kindergartener's first finger painting...

Comment on Whitehead for Allison

Whitehead conveys to the reader his views on how a University should function. Through imagination and discipline our education can be strengthend. He explains to the reader that education cannot be based on simply professors handing over knowledge to students, but more that the students and professors should interact and learn old information in a new, creative, and imaginative way. I agree with allison when she talks about how there needs to be a "freshness" when dealing with teaching in a university.
