«TXTours/Revs»

The Hypertext project TXTouren (this is the Homepage) started out from the Steiermark cultural initiative ZERONET (Graz, A) and first used the 'Bionic-Mailbox' Cerberus, then later the Internet, to set up a temporary network of participating authors, not just offline. The analogy of navigating in networks and purposeless strolling or nomadic activities – 'The monitor as arrival and departure terminal' (Heiko Idensen/Matthias Krohn) – as productive literary forces was based on access by modem and an interface created with Hypercard 2.1. The collective addition of new texts and building bricks still functioned at first via sending out floppy disks with the editors performing that function only. The way in which the project was written also refers to linking journeys and surface structures (textures), and thus promotes the processual weaving of a text.
