Platform Software platform or means of display e.g Installation / YouTube / HTML / Flash / Twitter / QuickTime Flash Work URL The URL of the original work, included as an HTML link. <a href="http://www.australysis.com/eggsite/theegg/eggfinalv2.html">http://www.australysis.com/eggsite/theegg/eggfinalv2.html</a> Artist Statement A statement about the work, as provided by the artist(s). The egg, the cart, the horse, the chicken was written by Hazel Smith (text) and Roger Dean (sound). The hypertext and animations, written in Flash by Hazel Smith, are designed for a split screen. The texts in both the upper and lower frame are grouped into short linear 'scenes' which form an overall 'movie'. But the sequence in the upper frame can be disrupted by clicking on hyperlinks (marked in capital letters), which allow the reader to jump to texts other than the ones which follow each other in sequence. Consequently the juxtaposition of the texts on the two different screens is also variable. The piece engages with the way in which linear systems are constantly disrupted by non-linearity. This is written into the piece at a formal level by the use of the hyperlinks, animation and split screen, which tend to disrupt normal reading processes. Thematically the piece also addresses the ways in which a simple cause and effect relationship rarely operates, even within scientific systems. At the same time the hypertextual network interconnects many different ideas including the cultural significance of illness, the process of writing, the commodification of women's bodies, and the atemporal nature of memory. <a href="http://www.australysis.com/eggsite/theegg/cart%20info.html">Statement in authors' website</a> Source of Artist Statement The source of information included in the Artist Statement, included as an HTML link to the relevant URL where possible. <a href="http://www.australysis.com/eggsite/theegg/cart%20info.html">Statement in authors' website</a> Genre Hypermedia Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
