Between Page and Screen is an experimental work of e-literature, created in collaboration between artist and scholar Amaranth Borsuk and coded by programmer Brad Bouse. Its authors describe it as a “kind of digital pop-up book”—readers hold the small physical book, which contains no words and only hieroglyphic Quick Response (QR) codes up to the webcam on his or her computer at the web address www.betweenpageandscreen.com and poems are projected onto the screen (Borsuk). Of the physical book, digital poetics scholar Jessica Pressman in her article “Reorienting Ourselves toward the Material: Between Page and Screen as Case Study” says: “You open its covers and realize immediately that this is not for you” (Pressman, 317). The physical pages of the book are only made legible to readers through the software via the screen, appropriate, given the subject and main characters of the work. Between Page and Screen is staged most often as a series of letters—more specifically, love letters sent after a quarrel—between the two main characters, Page and Screen.
I've attached a brief clip of me reading Between Page and Screen in Wilson Library, to demonstrate how the project works and is legible.
