Rebooting Electronic Literature, Volume 2 Chapter 4: Richard Holeton's "Figurski at Findhorn on Acid"

"Rebooting Electronic Literature, Volume 2 is the second of a series of open-source, multimedia books documenting works of electronic literature held in Dene Grigar's Electronic Literature Lab (ELL) collection at Washington State University Vancouver. The five works selected for this volume are among the most unique and fragile in the collection. All constitute long-form writing produced with stand-alone hypertext authoring systems available during the late 20th and early 21st centuries." -- from Rebooting Electronic Literature Volume 2, Introduction

"Taken together, the 1½ pages that make up this narrative hint at a dark comedy that becomes fully realized in Holeton's absurdist hypertext novel, Figurski at Findhorn on Acid, published by Eastgate Systems, Inc. in 2001. . . . Along with its satirical treatment of contemporary culture, a hallmark of the novel is its structure: It is a massive work of 147 text spaces built around clearly-defined combinations of three characters, locations, and artifacts, with an additional 147 Notes help to further contextualize the narrative for readers, and 2001 links connecting spaces and Notes together." -- from Rebooting Electronic Literature Volume 2, Chapter 4
