For that you also need graphic interfaces, Real Player and maybe even a computer laboratory at Brown University. That was where Mark Amerika--his legally adopted name; don’t ask him about his birth name--composed much of his novel Gramatron. But Grammatron isn’t just a story. It’s an online narrative (gramatron. com) that uses the capabilities of cyberspace to tie the conventional story line into complicated knots. In the four years it took to produce-it was completed in 1997-each new advance in computer software became another potential story device.
