Discussion Question: Mark Saporta's Composition No. 1

Here's a detailed description of a reading of Mark Saporta's recombinant novel Composition No. 1, which Marie-Laure Ryan cites as perhaps the only actual example of a Complete Graph. The description, incidentally, is by Nick Montfort, whose work we'll be encountering again during the semester.

Today's Topic: Loops and Branches 2.0

Reading: Ryan, “The Structures of Interactive Narrativity” (CP).
