| description | In this age of techno globalization “contemporary artists, poets, and musicians [are] making imaginative use of algorithms to generate new works and taking advantage of communications networks to craft cyber textual projects or works in cross-media formats” (Burdick 8). It is one of these cyber textual projects and a cross-media format that this article takes as a case study to explore. Titled “New World Order: Basra” by Sandy Baldwin, this cyber textual project integrates, apparently, two very different genres of expression, i.e. a poem and a typical game of shooting and hunting. The visual analysis of the electronic digital narrative titled “New World Order: Basra” by Sandy Baldwin entails different steps for this visual analysis; namely composition interpretation, Semiology, and Discourse Analysis, discussed here shortly. |
