Iterature's output is no more alienating than the many textual screens greeting us in urban spaces or the text we normally get from a search engine or a dynamic 2.0 website, but Iterature's literary staging forces us to reconsider the textual character and material more thoroughly, since the message is beyond the immediately decodable and recognizable.
I suggest looking at the interface as a new medium for the understanding of digital literature in order to understand more precisely how digital literature critically explores its own forms.
