A Fine Review

Jessica Pressman reviews My Name Is Captain, Captain. in "The Very Essence of Poetry" for the Iowa Review.

"the reader of My name is Captain, Captain. experiences and accepts the fusion of poetry and design, rhythm and animation as synthetic and symbiotic. The subtle collusion of print and programming exploits the pleasantries of text while throwing them into an alien environment....Meet My name is Captain, Captain. , electronic literature which, in focusing on the work as 'literature,' foregrounds the "electronic" as a space for future literary work and study.
