Hypertext poetry

The advent of hypertext poetry can be dated back to the mid-1980s [1]. However, the term "hypertext" has origins in the 18th century[2].

Hypertext poetry refers to creative works that are interconnected through the mechanics of digitization[1] This form of cyberpoetry has a specific focus on visual arts that are connected across different mediums[1]. In other words, hypertext poetry is a classification of digital poetry that links the reader to different places in a document or to different documents on the Internet[3]. In general, hypertext poetry combines the elements of culture and intertextuality to marry poetry to various digital mediums such as images, videos, texts, and songs[4].

Hypertext usually falls into two categories: exploratory and constructive. Exploratory hypertext poetry allows users to navigate through a text by interest, engagement, and reflection[1]. This means readers can explore and think creatively about a poem that is digitized on a computer[1]. Constructive hypertext poetry takes a different approach. This poetry is built by an audience over time to create a fully fleshed-out final draft[1]. Along with this, audiences have the ability to look at previous versions of the text[1]. In all, the focus of constructive hypertext poetry is how computer software and machinery can enhance the creation of poetry[1]. As such, users can see first-hand the amalgamation of an author's inspiration, writing process, and cultural influences.[4]
