I have written an article for the next issue of Performance Research
Journal - whose issue theme is On the Page - called Reading (Illegible)
Texts. This should be out very soon. Very very late in the process of
writing it I finally got my hands on: Dworkin, Craig (2003) Reading the
Illegible (Evanston, Illinois: Northwestern University Press)
There are other references in the article, both to examples of such writing
and to discussion of it or discussion that might help come to it.
N.Katherine Hayles is very helpful, I found - for example, in Writing
Machines. In my article I deliberately - though without announcing the
fact - used as examples mostly writers currently working on this (east) side
of the Atlantic.
Mairead, I am happy to talk more back channel if you like.
John
