It also [[discusses]] the central critical [[issues]] raised by electronic literature, pointing out that there is significant overlap with the print tradition. At the same time, the essay argues that the practices, texts, procedures, and processual nature of electronic literature require new critical [[models]] and new ways of [[playing]] and [[interpreting]] the works. E-Lit WIki is not a systematic attempt to [[survey]] and summarize the [[fast]]-changing field of electronic literature, artists, [[designers]], writers, critics—instead, it imagines itself a [[playful]] [[engagement]] with the forms and [[platforms]] of the present.
