"There is electronic literature that consists of works, and the authors and communities
and practices around such works. This is not a book about that electronic literature.
It is not a book that charts histories or genres of this emerging field, not a book
setting out methods of reading and understanding. The Internet Unconscious is a book
on the poetics of net writing, or more precisely on the subject of writing the net.
By 'writing the net', Sandy Baldwin proposes three ways of analysis: 1) an understanding
of the net as a loosely linked collocation of inscriptions, of writing practices and
materials ranging from fundamental TCP/IP protocols to CAPTCHA and Facebook; 2) as
a discursive field that codifies and organizes these practices and materials into
text (and into textual practices of reading, archiving, etc.), and into an aesthetic
institution of 'electronic literature'; and 3) as a project engaged by a subject,
a commitment of the writers' body to the work of the net. The Internet Unconscious
describes the poetics of the net's "becoming-literary," by employing concepts that
are both technically-specific and poetically-charged, providing a coherent and persuasive
theory. The incorporation and projection of sites and technical protocols produces
an uncanny displacement of the writer's body onto diverse part objects, and in turn
to an intense and real inhabitation of the net through writing. The fundamental poetic
situation of net writing is the phenomenology of "as-if." Net writing involves construal
of the world through the imaginary"
