Ten years of writing on, about, and via the internet, collected together in a single searchable resource
This unique archive contains a large and diverse collection of work published by the trAce Online Writing Centre between 1995 and 2005. It captures an evolutionary period in the history of literary communication comparable to the beginning of writing or the development of fixed type. The trAce Archive houses a broad range of original new media writing, articles, and transcripts of practice-based discussions.
