Abstract: This chapter explores some of the “poetic” dimensions and possibilities of language in electronic literature. More specifically, it proposes that “born digital works” may allow for aesthetic experiences that recall rather than radically departing from the poetic in print and other, earlier media. Samantha Gorman and Danny Cannizzaro’s App novella, Pry, and Nick Montfort and Stephanie Strickland’s poetry generator “Sea and Spar Between” have been chosen as test cases for the argument.
