Examples of "storyspace"
Her second work, "Samplers", Eastgate Systems, 1997, is a series of short stories done in
Storyspace
, and showcased the unique capabilities of
Storyspace
. For example,
Storyspace
allows links to have names, and Larsen used this capability to comment on, and undercut, the story.
Bolter has used
Storyspace
to revise several of his own books. More importantly,
Storyspace
provides facilities for writing and editing, which includes a map of the structure of the links, making it accessible for new users.
Storyspace
is currently being developed by Mark Bernstein of Eastgate Systems.
The earliest pieces of electronic literature as presently defined were created using
Storyspace
, software developed by Jay David Bolter and Michael Joyce in the 1980s. They sold the software in 1990 to Eastgate Systems, a small software company that has maintained and updated the code in
Storyspace
up to the present.
Storyspace
and other similar programs use hypertext to create links within text. Literature using hypertext is frequently referred to as hypertext fiction. Originally, these stories were often disseminated on discs and later on CD. Hypertext fiction is still being created today using not only
Storyspace
, but other programs such as Twine.
Several classics of hypertext literature were created using
Storyspace
, such as "Afternoon, a story" by Michael Joyce, "Victory Garden" by Stuart Moulthrop and "Patchwork Girl" by Shelley Jackson.
Some of the notable hypertext fictions created in
Storyspace
include: Michael Joyce's "afternoon, a story", Stuart Moulthrop's "Victory Garden" and Shelley Jackson's "Patchwork Girl".
Along with John B. Smith and Michael Joyce, Bolter co-created
Storyspace
, a software program for creating, editing, and displaying hypertext fiction. It was developed to support hypertext fiction in particular, although it can also be used for organizing and writing fiction and non-fiction intended for print. Although always credited as a coauthor of
Storyspace
with Joyce and Bolter, Smith wanted to clarify in an interview that he wasn’t involved in the development of either TALETELLER (which was a precursor to
Storyspace
) or
Storyspace
— but that he made more of an intellectual contribution insofar as "there was a sort of cloud of ideas that we were all drawing on in the discussions we’d have in this research entity at UNC, Textlab"
Illustrating the natural progression to hypervideo from hypertext, the software "
Storyspace
", a hypertext writing environment, employs a spatial metaphor for displaying links. "
Storyspace
" utilizes 'writing spaces', generic containers for content, which link to other writing spaces. "HyperCafe", a popular experimental prototype of hypervideo, made use of this tool to create "narrative video spaces". "HyperCafe" was developed as an early model of a hypervideo system, placing users in a virtual cafe where the user dynamically interacts with the video to follow different conversations.
Eastgate is a pioneer in hypertext publishing and electronic literature and one of the best known publishers of hypertext fiction. It publishes fiction, non-fiction, and poetry hypertexts by established authors with careers in print, as well as new authors. Its software tools include
Storyspace
, a hypertext system created by Jay David Bolter, Michael Joyce, and John B. Smith in which much early hypertext fiction was written, and Tinderbox, a tool for managing notes and information.
Storyspace
was used in a project in Michigan to put judicial "bench books" into electronic form. Eastgate's chief scientist, Mark Bernstein, is a well-known figure in hypertext research, and has improved and extended
Storyspace
as well as developing new hypertext software.
The first hypertext fictions were published prior to the development of the World Wide Web, using software such as
Storyspace
and HyperCard. Noted pioneers in the field are Judy Malloy and Michael Joyce.
"afternoon" was first offered to the public as a demonstration of the hypertext authoring system
Storyspace
, announced in 1987 at the first Association for Computing Machinery Hypertext conference in a paper by Michael Joyce and Jay David Bolter. In 1990, it was published on diskette and distributed in the same form by Eastgate Systems. It was followed by a series of other
Storyspace
hypertext fictions, including Stuart Moulthrop's "Victory Garden", Shelley Jackson's "Patchwork Girl" and Deena Larsen's "Marble Springs". Eastgate continues to publish the work in the 2010s and distributes it on a USB flash drive.
Patchwork Girl is a work of electronic literature by American author Shelley Jackson. It was written in
Storyspace
and published by Eastgate Systems in 1995. It is often discussed along with Michael Joyce's "afternoon, a story" as an important work of hypertext fiction.
Hypertext writing has developed its own style of fiction, coinciding with the growth and proliferation of hyper
text development software and the emergence of electronic networks. Two software programs specifically designed for literary hypertext, "
Storyspace
" and Intermedia became available in the 1990s.
Storyspace
is a software program for creating, editing, and reading hypertext fiction. It can also be used for writing and organizing fiction and non-fiction intended for print. Maintained and distributed by Eastgate Systems, the software is available both for Windows and Mac.
Storyspace
was the first software program specifically developed for creating, editing, and reading hypertext fiction. It was created in the 1980s by Jay David Bolter and Michael Joyce, who presented it to the first international meeting on Hypertext at Chapel Hill in October 1987.
Victory Garden is a work of electronic literature by American author Stuart Moulthrop. It was written in "
StorySpace
" and published by Eastgate Systems in 1992. It is often discussed along with Michael Joyce's "Afternoon, a story" as an important work of hypertext fiction.
In August 1987, Apple Computer released HyperCard for the Macintosh line at the MacWorld convention. Its impact, combined with interest in Peter J. Brown's GUIDE (marketed by OWL and released earlier that year) and Brown University's Intermedia, led to broad interest in and enthusiasm for hypertext and new media. The first ACM Hypertext academic conference took place in November 1987, in Chapel Hill NC, where many other applications, including the hypertext literature writing software
Storyspace
were also demoed
In August 1987, Apple Computer released HyperCard for the Macintosh line at the MacWorld convention. Its impact, combined with interest in Peter J. Brown's GUIDE (marketed by OWL and released earlier that year) and Brown University's Intermedia, led to broad interest in and enthusiasm for hypertext, hypermedia, databases, and new media in general. The first ACM Hyper
text (hyperediting and databases) academic conference took place in November 1987, in Chapel Hill NC, where many other applications, including the branched literature writing software
Storyspace
, were also demonstrated.
Arellano was born in 1969 and raised in Summit, New Jersey. After earning both Bachelor (1991) and Masters (1994) degrees from Brown University, he taught for a decade on Brown's Literary Arts faculty. In 1993 he used
Storyspace
to publish the Internet's first hyperzine, "LSD-50", on a Gopher server. In 1996, Sonicnet serialized his groundbreaking hypertext novel "Sunshine ’69" on the World Wide Web. Arellano is a founding member of the Literary Advisory Board of the Electronic Literature Organization and founding director of the Center for Emerging Media and Digital Arts at Southern Oregon University.
Storyspace
has also been used extensively in secondary and tertiary education for teaching writing skills and critical thinking. It has been used for teaching creative writing in particular, and was especially popular in the early years of the web when hypertext linking was less fluid and web pages had to be hand-coded in HTML. Proponents argue that Storyspace's visual maps of how hypertext nodes or lexia are connected allow students to focus on writing in hypertext rather than on technical issues, and that linking and/or visually juxtaposing ideas allows students to develop a visual logic.
The Victorian Web is a hypertext project derived from hypermedia environments, Intermedia and
Storyspace
, that anticipated the World Wide Web. The 1,500 or so documents that constitute its kernel were created in 1988-90 by its current webmaster and editor-in-chief George P. Landow (Professor of English and Art History Emeritus at Brown University), with his then graduate assistants David Cody, Glenn Everett, and Kathryn Stockton, as part of the IRIS Intermedia Project at Brown University. This was funded as a proof-of-concept networked hypermedia project by IBM, Apple, the Annenberg Foundation, and other sponsors. It was expanded by contributions from a professor at Vassar College (Anthony S. Wohl), material from the Intermedia Dickens Web (Landow, Julie Launhardt, and Paul Kahn), material from the In Memoriam Web (Landow, Jon Lanestedt), and other sources.
