Virtual Actual: Hypertext as Material Writing

Original Citation: 

Miles, Adrian. "Virtual Actual: Hypertext as Material Writing." Studies in Material Thinking 1.2 (2008).

abstract: 

This essay uses the material thought advocated by Paul Carter to argue for the materiality of writing. It does this by examining hypertext as an academic material writing practice, using ideas from design and hypertext theory. It specifically argues for a crystalline structure in hypertext as the actualisation of virtual possibilities via links and how this is different and novel in relation to existing academic writing.
