//Alright, so I've been working off a really messy, scratched out arrows all over outline on a piece of paper. This is my interpretation of that mess. Even typing it up now, I realize I missed a few of the points I wanted to bring up. I'll work them into the second draft.

Code as plot device- move plot, treasure map cipher
-Poe's "Gold-bug"
-Pynchon's muted posthorn in "Crying of Lot49"
-Paranoia of connectivity in Gravity's Rainbow
-gives mystery and moves search from bathroom to auction house to underground postal system, finds itself in a play from antiquity.
-code acts as a metaphor for search for meaning, but parodies Poe-style mysteries in a postmodern way, revealing that not all mysteries can be solved(much like some of the ones found in Singh)
-Has no end. Was Trystero a red herring? What affect does this have on the reader?

Metaphorical representation of code
-Gibson's "Burning Chrome"/"Neuromancer"
-invokes cyberspace as differential space from physical world
-metaphorical physical reality
-hacker hacks code, but not to reveal meaning, just to steal money

Poetry/changing meaning using code to create language
-Jodi
-Uses code to create creolelike like language, calling functions and breaking up words to form portmanteaus
-Talan Mermott
-Discusses the human condition and the computer condition
-cadavatars
-immateriality/materiality, physical virtual? Hayles?

code no longer metaphor, but actual use in literature to connect.
-blogging/web2.0, virtual knowledge. wikipedia?
-E-text, Amazon kindle
-"You Say You Want A Revolution"
-Xanadu linking
-QR augmented reality connecting TV and Hyperion to the internet.
-Real world connection to virtual world. Creates space.
-intertexual-connectivity the future of postmodern lit?
