Abstract (in English)

A profile of the prolific e-lit author J. R. Carpenter focusing on the geosocial dimension of her works before introducing "Struts," a piece about her residency at an art gallery and media center.

Pull Quotes

Replete with drawngs, diagrams, videos, photographs, and text in the form of poems and superimpositions, “Entre Ville” resembles some of Jason Nelson’s mixed-media works, but whereas Nelson eschews any easy association with location and cultural specifities, Carpenter — whose videos always use natural sound, suggestive of quiet early mornings — creates a meditative atmosphere, inviting you to an engagement more with objects and animals than with the culture and the detritus of the information superhighway.
