Confusing

The website has some kind of electronic collage or something, idk. I mean i think it is kind of cool the way everything its together and the fact that obviously this meant enough to one person to put it all together in the first place. Yes there are words in the different boxes and i guess it could be considered literature given today's broad definition of it, but personally i would consider this more to be art and not so much literature. When i think of literature i think of something readable, and while the words in the boxes are readable they are just kind of random and dont really make sense together. Maybe if i continued to look at it and look deeper than just surface meaning i could find reason for the whole thing but there are also a lot of just random pictures and i am just not really sure how, meaning wise, it would all fit together. Like i said, maybe it could be considered literature but i, personally, would just consider it another way of expressing personality in art form. Not to say that it isnt good, i just dont necessarily think it fits my definition of literature. And i realize that the title box in the collage says "Electronic Literature, Volume 1" but I just dont agree with that, but then again maybe i have the totally wrong defnintion of literature in the first place. I dont know. But thank God this is the last blog.
