category : website design
description : Metatexts is an interactive poetry website experimentating a mix of texts, code, sounds, images and animations. Intuition and meaning are to be questioned within an intimate atmosphere developed at the user’s pace. Navigation from a metatext to another is to be made via the press of the keyboard’s space bar. Ways of navigating inside a metatext depend on the feature and intuition. Features are randomly picked among an unknown selection from the artist.
Metatexts was first published in French [Métatextes.com] on the web in 2002, was noticed by the French national press [Le Monde Littéraire, Libération, Télérama] and participated to many off-lines exhibitions in France. Its international version Metatexts saw the light of the day in 2004 [thanks again to the late Martha Mast for her invaluable help with regards to its translation].
2021 note : initially built on the Flash technology which has been abandonned by Adobe in late 2020.
Youtube shortclips are also available as video memories, but the whole project's interest strongly relies on the interactive and random experience.
