Description (in English)

El jardín de los relatos inacabados (The Garden of Unfinished Stories) by Félix Remírez is a digital work in which the reader explores a simulation of the scenery of a garden to discover ten beginnings of stories that, eventually give him/her an idea to continue a longer narrative. The fragments of stories are like creative seeds. The texts are not obvious to find and they oblige the reader to surround the whole garden.

Description (in original language)

El jardín de los relatos inacabados de Félix Remírez es una obra digital en la que el lector debe explorar un escenario que simula un jardín para descubrir varias decenas de inicios de relatos que, eventualmente, pueden darle ideas para continuar con una narración más extensa. Como si de semillas creativas se tratara. Los textos no son evidentes de descubrir y obligan al lector a recorrer las imágenes del jardín.

Description (in English)

A six foot square garden sits in the middle of an otherwise ordinary computer lab. Water briskly flows down a series of cacsades into a glowing pool. Projected on the surface of the pool and flowing as if they were caught in the water's grasp are a tangle of words. You can reach out and touch the flow, blocking it or stirring up the words causing them to grow and divide, morphing into new words that are pulled into the drain and pumped back to the head of the stream to tumble down again.
