The Roots of Nonlinearity: Toward a Theory of Web-Specific Art-Writing

The Roots of Nonlinearity: Toward a Theory of Web-Specific Art-Writing is a creative hypertext essay in observation of the facets and strata of the medium.

"This creative essay highlights ideas from Quantum Mechanics and Chaos Theory, which have influenced 20th century literary development from print to the web. Nonlinearity in fiction is explored as an attempt to break deterministic patterns, (i.e. the conflict - crisis - resolution model) and create a satisfying new form." -- from the Introduction
