Marginal Effects

"Marginal Effects" is a work that "appeared in the brief run of Mark Bernstein's online publication Tekka. Called 'a disorder of attention,' the work is about fragmentation and concealment, using a curious exploit in Flash to simulate portals into stacked layers of image and text. There are two of these peepholes, one cycling aimlessly around the screen, the other under player control. If in moving the controlled portal the player mouses over a link, a page transition results. Lots of fictive interruption in this one." -- Stuart Moulthrop
