"Christine Love is a Canadian independent visual novelist best known for her three original works: Digital: A Love Story, Don't take it personally, babe, it just ain't your story, and Analogue: A Hate Story.
Christine Love's Digital: A Love Story is a visual novel set 'five-minutes into the future of 1988' and invites the player back into the early days of the Internet through the interface of an Amiga-esque computer. The graphical interface of white text on a blue background accompanies the metaphor of the local BBS (bulletin board system) as a happening space for conspiracy and flirting. All the core interaction takes place through dialing into this system, which has multiple characters and threads that can be explored through sending out replies to advance the story. The work is strongly grounded in early hacker culture and William Gibsen-inspired models of artificial intelligence." -- from Electronic Literature Collection, Volume 3
