Abstract

The new digital and electronic media force us to redefine the contrasting notions of orality and literacy, which now move into cyberspace. These electronic technologies are memory machines which help to preserve knowledge, which increase its productivity by means of multimedia codes capable of generating manipulable works which could not be accomplished by the classic media, and which often have their being in their open and fragmentary nature, allowing interactive and open access, and team work in different locations. This article concentrates on digital poetry and its movement back to orality, subverting systematic, rule-bound, linear and ordered spaces in writing.
