This chapter really went into everything hypertext. If I am being honest I still find it a little confusing but I enjoy that it is more of an art than anything else. Something I am noticing about electronic lit is that it becomes more of an art the more you look into it. I also love how interactive it is. You are able to experience it in a way that is just not possible in a book. I find this to be really cool. I say it every time but how wonderful must it have been to be a pioneer of this stuff!
I wanted to take a deeper look at Uncle Buddy’s Phantom Funhouse. And what a wild ride that is. I typed it into google and hit the first link and that was transported into the early 90s. The program was able to go full screen on my laptop and it was really cool. At first it just looked like an old school windows program. I clicked around until I found a file that said "Click me first". I did what any normal person would do and clicked it. It then took me deeper into the program. I finally arrived at the funhouse. It has different windows to click into. It honestly gave me a really creepy vibe. I liked it. I watched the art gallery and it had something to do with his missing father. It is a really cool concept and I wonder what it would have looked back in the 90s.
