Hypertext syntagmas: cinematic narration with links
liminal

The betweenness of cinema suggests that hypertext as a writing event should be thought of as lying somewhere between the formalisation that a 'language' requires, and the singular and transitory contexts of the uttered word. A liminal state between formalisation and chaos, or at least between writing as the traversal of an always open plane and writing as the already said.
