Talks about computer code and literary theory. Works in importance of materiality of a text. Analyses some sci-fi.

Shit's kind of all over the place, and discerning a main point has been difficult, but it's a pretty cool ride.

I'm about done with it. Should finish it tonight or tomorrow.

I've been reading My Mother Was a Computer: Digital Subjects and Literary Texts by N. Katherine Hayles.

It's pretty interesting so far. Makes a good attempt at exploring code for its own sake, and not just trying to read it as literary text, and it does a good job of establishing how the two are different and how they're similar.

I'm only about 3 chapters in, though.
