[ISEA96] Paper: Nina Pope & Karen Guthrie – Hypertext Journal: An Online Interactive Travelogue

Abstract

Short Paper

This paper describes the project ‘A Hypertext Journal’ by Nina Pope and Karen J Guthrie, and through this explores the potential of the Internet as a site for art production and interactivity.

  • Nina Pope & Karen Guthrie, UK, met whilst at Edinburgh College of Art before they completed MA’s in London and began working together in 1995. Their early career was marked by technological innovation combined with a socially-engaged and inclusive sensibility – for example, their live online travelogue A Hypertext Journal (1996) which was an experimental precursor to ‘blogging’ (source: somewhere.org.uk/about/biography)
