Bill Bly's Traversal

3041
This traversal of Bill Bly, conducted by Dene Grigar and Stuart Moulthrop, took place on Friday, January 31, 2014 at the Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities (MITH) at the University of Maryland as part of the Pathfinders project. Bly is the author of We Descend, a hypertext novel focused on the metaphor of an "archaeological dig." The story takes us through four timelines (five, if you count the timeline the reader represents), beginning with a future post-apocalyptic storyline of Egderus who digs down through eons of data to reconstruct cultural history, encountering, along the way, writings by an ancient who calls himself the Last One. The traversal is divided into four parts and reveals to us the unique aspects and qualities of the piece.
