Interactivity - Hypertextuality - Transversality. A media-philosophical analysis of the Internet

Abstract: My considerations are organized into three parts. In the first part I expand upon the influence of the Internet on our experience of space and time as well as our concept of personal identity. This takes place, on the one hand, in the example of text-based Internet services (IRC, MUDs, MOOs), and through the World Wide Web's (WWW) graphical user-interface on the other. Interactivity, the constitution characteristic for the Internet, stands at the centre of this. In the second part I will show how the World Wid… Show more

“…Hypertextuality, which constitutes the core of Internet documents, is created by the simple hypertext markup language (HTML), so that the text represents not a fixed linear sequence, but performs as a network to be actively composed (Sandbothe, 1996). Every building block of text (node) contains an abundance of keywords, pictograms, and pictures, which can be clicked on with a mouse; these are the links.…”

“…Hypertextuality is a science that studies the relationship between one text and another (Cicconi 2012;Genette 1997;Sandbothe 2017). The text, in this case, has a broader meaning.…”

“…Hypertextual relationships are unsorted structures that allow the reader to create interpretations (Cicconi 2012). Hypertextual logic not only reconstructs criteria through information exchange but also dismantles textual paradigm solidity and textual analysis (Sandbothe 2017). In principle, hypertextuality refers to any relationship that unites text B (referred to as hypertext) to the previous text A (referred to as hypotext).…”

“…Therefore, not the finally produced media, but the relationships between them were placed at the centre of the study (Kasperski, 2010: 65-68), as in mathematical category theory 2 . The specific dependencies of the digital word and image have been described in detail primarily by Jay David Bolter (2001) and Mike Sandbothe (2000). The analyses of these researchers are an important point of reference for this article.…”
