Update 05/25: I’ve received a cease-and-desist letter from Ghostface Killah’s legal representation. The offending material has been removed.
Because I wish to and am not easily pinned (my leg-wrestling skills are famed), today I begin a strange and unwieldy new project I’m calling Stuck. Two (admittedly yucky) terms that I’m using to describe it are “a geographic novel” and “a physical microblog.” It will be composed of short passages, 250-characters each, embedded in 2D barcodes placed around Eugene for readers to scan and decode with their smartphones.
While each of these “chapters” are perfectly enjoyable on their own, intrepid readers can use the coordinates found on this map and Stuck‘s twitter account to visit them in a sequence of their choosing, effectively authoring a new text in the process. And if all that sounds overly technical, you can also just read the whole thing like a human might, as it’s released, here.
