Strasser and Coverley’s visual poem is a multimedia meditation on the nature of memory. By choosing pulsing dots as if from behind a veil, the reader activates collages of photographs and ambient sounds, representing the process of trying to recover lost memories, which surface and fade in and out of intelligibility.
The more I looked at this E-Lit example the more it grew on me. When I first started clicking around with it I got really frustrated, but then when I understood the system a bit more I realized it was really in-depth. I think it is a good example of Multiplicity because it references different memories from someone’s life. It also incorporates a lot of different elements. Even though it doesn’t play in the screen recording, there were ambient sounds that would appear when prompted. I like that there was this inclusion of elements from different media types.
