TY - ART TI - The Mandrake Vehicles AU - Oni Buchanan AU - Betsy Stone Mazzoleni AB - "The Mandrake Vehicles challenges our notions of the normal economy of a poetic text by providing numerous different readings of the same set of letters, in the process concretely moving the graphemical (if not psychological) 'subtext' of a poem to the foreground in clever, surprising ways. Transitional animations, in which letters fall, expand and disappear, transport the reader between texts like through a time (or other) sort of warp, a pictorial revelry that brings this seemingly stable, stylistically intricate text to the frontier of linguistic meaninglessness and back." -- from Electronic Literature Collection, Volume 2 C3 - Web PY - 2006 LA - English M3 - Animated, Executable, Hypertext, Poetry UR - https://the-next.eliterature.org/works/695/0/0/ DB - The NEXT Y2 - 2025-04-01 ER -
