“StretchText” variations

StretchText was coined by Ted Nelson and is the idea of having the detail of content in a document to be user-controllable. Meaning that text nodes can be expanded and contracte, for instance depending on reader’s interests. It’s comparable to zooming in the domain of detail or meaning.

Accelerated Logic / Ryan Gandler


“Printed, laser die-cut orange acrylic stencil containing annotations made by the artist, to page 11 of John Berger’s Ways of Seeing. The annotations select, highlight, as well as censor the still in-print publication. Mirroring the mass production of the available book, the work considers the possible multiplication of a personal perspective through the function of the stencil.”

Idyll

“Idyll is a tool that makes it easier to author interactive narratives for the web. The goal of the project is to provide a friendly markup language — and an associated toolchain — that can be used to create dynamic, text-driven web pages.”
