Exe.cut[up]able statements – Poetische Kalküle und Phantasmen des selbstausführenden Texts
Florian Cramer (DE/NL)
Prix Ars Electronica 2007 MEDIA.ART.RESEARCH AWARD
Exe.cut[up]able Statements – Poetische Kalküle und Phantasmen des selbstausführenden Texts („Exe.cut[up]able Statements – Poetic Computations and Phantasms of the Self-Executing Text“) is a 350-page German-language book on computational language and algorithmic codes in literature and other arts: from speculative, fantastic and experimental writing to concept and computer art; from magic charms, kabbalism and Renaissance permutational poetry to aleatoric collage in 20th-century avant-garde arts, Oulipo poetry, stochastic and recursive texts, hacker slang, net.art and codeworks. The book wraps up a good decade of critical participant observation of net and computer arts, and reflects many discussions and encounters with artists, theorists and activists on mailing lists, at conferences and festivals – including Ars Electronica, where in 2003 the author gave a talk on the poetics of command lines also entitled “Exe.cut[up]able Statements”.
