Entanglements: an exploration of the digital literary work FISHNETSTOCKINGS

Hybridity

We explore the theme of hybridity as it pervades FISHNETSTOCKINGS and the mythos of the mermaid.  Our approach to  hybridity is inflected by Donna Haraway’s cyborg as well as micha cardenas’ work on trans poetic operations.  Hybridity also turns our attention to the borders and liminal spaces throughout this piece, places where worlds come together. As we explore the piece, we find hybridity in the code, in the images, as well as, in the nature of the interaction -- or as we would call it, entanglement with the piece.
