The digital artwork is characterized not by the technology which delivers it, but by the "passage" itself.
Masha TupitsynThe digital age is for me in many ways about temporal wounding. It's really messed up our ontological clocks.
Masha TupitsynI am as much what I am because of what I still don't have as I am because of what I have had and what I might still have one day.
Masha TupitsynI was never really satisfied with writing only text or with the way my texts looked when they were published. Most online journals have a pretty lame sense of typography - bad font, counter-intuitive margins and line spacing - that it makes me sour on my writing.
Masha TupitsynQuotes are like prompts. A way of searching, connecting the dots. Other people's thinking has always - both positively and negatively - jumpstarted my thinking. Quotes are also a way of acting out not just a text, and not just thinking, but the making of a text. The construction of thinking. The quotes are part of those constructions and reflections. Thinking through quotes, which to say scouring a range of texts for insight, is one way to outline the process of thinking/feeling through a subject.
Masha TupitsynThe way something looks or sounds is also what it means. Words as visual and aural phenomena, which mainly poets, not critics and prose writers, tend to be obsessed with. I think maybe I'm more of a curator than I am a writer in the strict sense because I am interested in how everything on the page, in a space, works together.
