I'm interested in another kind of hypertext, one that denies the priority of print structures. This would be an original or native hypertext composed in and for the electronic medium, therefore situated outside the literary conventions of print -- conventions like singular coherence and reductive argumentation.
Are you reading such a text now? Is this kind of writing a real possibility or just a theoretical fiction? Assuming for a moment that it's the former, could such writing be used to develop a discourse about hypertext and its rhetoric? Could it be the hypertext Bernstein is looking for -- or perhaps a kind of hypertext none of us expected?
