Exploration in Digital Literature

Option 4: Getting a closer look

With the option to stop walking, J.R. Carpenter allows the reader to analyze the surroundings of different areas of the unknown at a deeper level. Ranging from the quaint architecture and vivid descriptions of the different aspects of the city, these components can be overwhelming to look at. With the pause button available to be used, the reader can take a break and get back to the same page without the city scenery description changing to another description. Additionally, the pause button allows the reader to regenerate and come back with a fresher perspective to discover potentially something new within the work that he/she may not have realized a few minutes ago. Here, exploration represents a way to zoom into ideas that catches one's eyes and to delve into deeper understanding of as well.
