its name was Penelope

"The generative hyperfiction its name was Penelope is a collection of memories in which a woman photographer recollects the details of her life.

Like a photos in a photo album, each lexia represents a picture from the narrator's memory, so that the work is the equivalent of a pack of small paintings or photographs that the computer continuously shuffles. The reader sees things as she sees them and observes her memories come and go in a natural, yet nonsequential manner that creates a constantly changing order -- like the weaving and reweaving of Penelopeia's web." -- from ELMCIP
