The initial three links pages that intrigued me was Page12<\/a>, Page 51<\/a>, and Page 52<\/a>.  The tension and the mood created in <\/a>Page 12<\/a> <\/a>narrative between Gina and Bent on their road trip peak my interest to want to know more about them.  I want to know where Gina and Bent are going and why, therefore I click on the link that state “Next Stop” that brings me to Page 51<\/a> which appear to be a disconnected narrative.  Before I get a chance to select on one of the four links after I finished reading Page 51<\/a> then the page automatically refresh to page 52<\/a> which continues the story of Gina and Bent.  <\/p>\n

The insert of Page 51<\/a> sandwiched between Gina and Bent’s original narrative seemingly stands out as an unrelated story.  The visuals clues, such as background colors, font style, or structure of the words layout offer a hint of continuation or divergent from one groupings of narrative to another.  Similarly, the title also signals that some pages are either from the same or different narratives.  The title at the top of the narrative changed from “Driver” to “Cataglog of Dream #14.  <\/p>\n

Although Page 51<\/a> appear different, it is natural tendency to draw connections between them to establish a semblance of cohesiveness in the narrative, which is similar to the ideology described in J. Douglas’s article.  The rational that can be given to justify the function of the break between Gina and Bent’s narrative is that Gina is probably dreaming and fantasying.  Since the title of Page 51<\/a> is a “Dream Catalog”, also in the next link <\/a>Page 52<\/a> Gina is described asleep in the car while Bent drove.  So this three links merge together as if they are one whole narrative and complimented one another quite nicely.  <\/p>\n

Nonetheless, other times the separate links does not fit neatly together as if one cohesive narrative and the meaning between the link pages are harder to understand.  I found the limit of only three linked pages to use as the bases in articulating a critical reading and interpretation of Hegirascope a difficult task to do.  Hegirascope offer lots of possibilities of different narratives that it is hard to settle on just a small section of three linked pages.  To facilitate with understanding of what I am reading in Hegirascope I made a simple map of the link that I have visited so that I can retrace my step.  I like to explore majority of the possibilities and different variations the story can offer.  In Gina and Bent’s narrative I am interested in what the original intent of the original story with the title “Drivers” and brown background. So I try to find out additional links that have the same aesthetic that distinguished this narrative from the rest of the others in Hegirascope.  So far I traced about the story titled “Drivers” to ten different linked pages in Hegirascope.  Also there are groupings of different story imbedded within Gina and Bent’s story.  Second-degree removes from the original story there are links to the dream sequence, the Amanda, the number poem and many more other stories.  The mix and match of all the different stories reminded me of the One Hundred Thousand Billion Poems by Raymond Queneau.  By mixing and matching several different pages of story together one can recreate a completely different narrative. <\/p>\n

All together the links and different stories inserted into the narrative create a broader and more comprehensive narrative. Through the selections of my links and the method of how I go about tracing down the links, Gina and Bent’s characters and journey changes from one encounter to the next, whereas, other readers might have a completely different understanding and experience in reading Gina and Bent’s narrative.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
