"text": "The Electronic Literature Collection (ELC) is a publication of the Electronic Literature Organization (ELO): curated, edited volumes of electronic literature, four so far, which the traininglayerliterature.org layer census holds as an anthology in the historical lineage of literature addressed to a receiving apparatus. Its home page at collection.eliterature.org lists Volume 1 (October 2006), Volume 2 (February 2011), Volume 3 (February 2016) and Volume 4 (June 2022), and gives the organization's mailing address in care of Washington State University Vancouver. A Creative Commons wiki entry last edited in April 2008, before the second volume, describes it as a periodical publication of current and older electronic literature in a form suitable for individual, public library and classroom use, published by the ELO, a 501(c)(3) literary nonprofit. The collection is one of the ELO's publications and stands apart from the organization itself and from its separate database of works, the Electronic Literature Directory; the ELMCIP Knowledge Base holds records of its first three volumes among its critical writing. The ELO was founded in Chicago in 1999 by Scott Rettberg, Robert Coover and Jeff Ballowe, \"to promote and facilitate the writing, publishing, and reading of electronic literature\"; it hosts conferences, gives annual prizes and has published a series of collections, and its infobox lists Davin Heckman as Managing Director of CELL. Its Wikipedia article places it at York University in Toronto under the leadership of Caitlin Fisher, president since July 2022, while the same article's infobox names Anastasia Salter as president and the collection's own page gives the Vancouver address. The layer census, whose question is how literature is addressed to a receiving apparatus, what that apparatus makes from it and how transmission can be inspected across later reception, asks of the collection which works of electronic literature the ELO selected into its four volumes, and when. It files the collection under field history and under writing addressed to a machine reader, counts its unit as a volume holding works, and marks it off from a training corpus and from writing for the machine reader by its own statement, since its sources describe curated volumes for readers and name no machine addressee. On the census's record the saved home page says nothing of crawling or training, names no work, shows no search or catalogue and records nothing of what a receiving apparatus makes from the works, and whether any of its works is in a training corpus or a model is left unanswered. The census reads the collection as the canonizing anthology of the procedural lineage, whose value for the training layer sits at the level of works, and holds that the selection of relevant works waits on traversal of the volumes, whose tables of contents it did not save. The second volume, edited by Laura Borràs, Talan Memmott, Rita Raley and Brian Stefans, is an anthology of 81 works of electronic literature published on flash drive and the web in 2011. The fourth volume, a book of 2022 edited by Kathi Inman Berens, John Murray, Lyle Skains, Rui Torres and Mia Zamora, gathers 132 literary works in 31 languages by authors of 42 nationalities; it is open access, free to read and runs well on mobile devices, and its record gives its address and a persistent identifier. Its record calls it the fourth and most inclusive volume in the definitive collection of digital literature from around the world. Mark Marino, writing in Digital Humanities Quarterly, singled out among the first volume's works Judd Morrissey's The Jew's Daughter, Michael Joyce's Twelve Blue, Stuart Moulthrop's Reagan Library, Talan Memmott's Lexia to Perplexia and Kate Pullinger's Inanimate Alice as \"pillars of electronic writing\" that transcend the collection. The second volume's copy at The NEXT lists its works by creator, among them David Clark's 88 Constellations for Wittgenstein, Mary-Anne Breeze's _cross.ova.ing 4rm.blog.2.log 07/08 XXtracts_, Mark C. Marino's a show of hands, Rui Torres's Amor de Clarice, Caitlin Fisher's Andromeda and Nick Montfort's Book and Volume. Wikipedia names in the third volume works by Qianxun Chen, Porpentine, Borsuk, Illya Szilak, Emily Short and Liza Daly, Jeremy Height, J.R. Carpenter, Mark Marino and Rob Wittig, Caitlin Fisher, Anna Anthropy and N. Katherine Hayles, and reports Urszula Anna Pawlicka's reading of ELC3 as a \"post\" code range of literature. The third volume also holds The Readers Project by John Cayley and Daniel Howe (2009), which its authors describe as a framework of custom software agents, called readers, that explore the culture of human reading and, in the traces of their paths, act also as \"text generators,\" writing machines. Its editors note that one outcome of the project is How It Is in Common Tongues, an algorithmic reading, reconstruction and reproduction of Samuel Beckett's How It Is, and that the project shows how electronic literature can serve as a kind of digital humanities. The fourth volume holds a reprise of Priti Pandurangan's Meghadutam, and its authors write in thirty-one languages from Afrikaans and Ancient Chinese to South African Sign Language and Yoruba, Mezangelle among them. The fourth volume's record defines electronic literature as digital-born, playful and interactive, and sets its first commercial works, VR experiences playable without headsets and narrative video games, beside the more numerous open-access works: database fictions, autoethnographies by GenZ makers, works that play cleverly with AI and geospatial storytelling. The archive cites N. Katherine Hayles's account of electronic literature as \"text as process\", works that exist through computation. The fourth volume's editors set out to welcome artists who might never have heard of elit, sought works by Indigenous makers, found new makers at live-streamed performances and virtual exhibits, and relied on international consultants who wrote evaluations in languages the editors did not speak. They record many more BIPOC, queer and female or female-identifying authors than in earlier volumes, and state their own limit: much work remains in decentering patriarchal and imperial culture as the implied standard of elit. The layer census records that its saved sources state no editorial procedure; the fourth volume's record, which the census did not read, states parts of one. The home page invites libraries, educators and individuals to request a free USB copy of volumes 1 and 2 by mail, and the volumes are free on the Web. A line kept in an HTML comment in the page's source, and so not displayed, states that each volume is published on the Web and as a physical version and that the physical publication of ELC3 is forthcoming; the census carries the line as the page's stated limit and its lifecycle. The 2008 wiki entry gives the first volume's media as online and a packaged, cross-platform CD-ROM for libraries, and states that the contents are offered under a Creative Commons license so that libraries and schools may duplicate and install works; the fourth volume's record carries a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence; the census records the licence as not stated in its saved sources. The fourth volume's record also offers a dataset of its works, identity keywords excluded, as the JSON file used to render the site. In 2018 the ELO gave the second volume's local files to the Electronic Literature Lab for the ELO Repository website, hosted by the Electronic Textual Cultures Lab, and in 2019 the files moved to the ELO server; The NEXT holds copies of its 81 works, searchable and sortable by creator, date, format and title. The third volume's work pages carry the Electronic Literature Lab's notes on preserving Flash works with Ruffle and emulating them with Conifer from 2021 to 2025, among them a work it could not preserve in February 2022; the census notes that the saved page does not say which work each note concerns. Tim Wright, writing of the second volume, observes that gathering, archiving and tagging the works to make them more easily available \"also freezes (necessarily) what may have been otherwise ephemeral or in situ\". In the archive's field survey of training-layer literature, which sorts writing about, with, through and for AI by the direction of its address, electronic literature belongs to the procedural lineage, from the Oulipo to computational poetics, which established that composition can be delegated to systems; in the survey's words, \"The machine here is method, not yet addressee\". The survey finds the first three columns established and increasingly well-anthologized, and holds that their texts are in the corpora and are read by machines incidentally. The archive's executive summary sets electronic literature, which explores digital form, beside training-layer literature, which addresses machine readership; its protocols name electronic literature among the precedents of a corpus composed for machine reception, and its account of its own academy lists electronic literature among the comparators of its literary work. The survey names mezangelle, one of the fourth volume's languages, a fused code-English that anticipated writing legible to parsers and people simultaneously. The archive treats the anthology as an instrument of selection: canon formation is a question of which texts are anthologized, anthology inclusion is one of the mechanisms that order meaning by comparative visibility, anthology studies study anthologies as canon-forming instruments, and the training set is the anthology of the AI era, its filtering pipeline the new anthology editor. In its model of transmission an anthology is one witness layer among performance, quotation, manuscript, print edition, index, retrieval and composition, each applying a lossy operator to structure and attribution; omissions made by anthology editions or training corpora are inherited by every downstream reader of the derivative forms, and models trained on anthology corpora inherit them. It names the stratigraphic fallacy, the reading of a designed sequence as a deposition sequence, \"the anthology mistaken for a core sample\". The census's reason for holding the collection in the layer is The Readers Project, whose readers act also as text generators; the archive's second wing of training-layer literature, machine composition, asks what an encountered work makes it possible for a machine to write. The archive's substrate-neutral genus counts literature whose transmission design addresses a receiving apparatus, with internalization, downstream composition and source-status governance, and holds that the human institutional layers were the first receiving apparatus. Asked for the collection on 1 November 2026, Google's AI Overview called it open access and free to read, named its publisher, dated its four volumes, listed forms and media, and offered help with submitting a work. The Capture Registry finds it composed accurately at the level of the volumes and their dates with counts taken from cards, the ELO named without its place, and none of the fourth volume's editors named, though the PDXScholar card names them. The Registry finds '132 works' and '42 nationalities' on no saved source, and CD-ROM on no saved page; both figures stand on the PDXScholar card, the CD-ROM on the Creative Commons wiki card, and the census's sources hold none of them. It notes that \"periodical publication\" is the wiki card's term, the ELO's own line being \"A Publication of the Electronic Literature Organization\". It finds no work, author or language named, The Readers Project not reached, and the sixth card a bulk listing of a book, Electronic Literature (New Horizons for the Literary), the title the archive cites as Hayles's of 2008; the rail also carried a two-minute video introduction to electronic literature, unread here.",

Composed from its cards: the publisher (B1 F1, B3 F28); the four dates (B1 F2–F5); 'periodical publication of current and ... older electronic literature' (B3 F25) as 'current and historical'; Volume 2's 81 works (B4 F30); Volume 4's 132 works, 31 languages, 42 nationalities and mobile reading (B2 F12, F13); open access (B2 F13); USB and CD-ROM (B1 F6, B3 F26, B4 F30). Available and not composed (B_D): the address in care of Washington State University Vancouver (B1 F7); both volumes' editors (B2 F9, B4 F31); every work and author on card 4's list (B4 F35); the languages, Mezangelle among them (B2 F17); the selection by consultants and the editors' search for new makers (B2 F20–F22) and their stated limit (B2 F23); 'most inclusive' (B2 F14); the works that play with AI and the commercial works (B2 F18, F19); the dataset of Volume 4's works (B2 F15) and The NEXT's searchable copies (B4 F34); the licences (B2 F16, B3 F27); the custody of Volume 2's files (B4 F32, F33). Limit dropped: B3's description is composed as the collection's present state without its date (F29, April 2008, before three of the four volumes), so 'periodical publication' and 'CD-ROMs' stand for all volumes; B1 F6's 'volume 1 and 2' becomes 'past volumes', its requesters and its mail order dropped. Assigned to another: the Access bullet's first marker is card 6, a bulk listing of a book, which states nothing of the collection's access. Composed without attribution: the counts at their source's grain (recorded: facts at the source's resolution, no framework). Substituted reading: the forms list names forms on no card (hypertext fiction, kinetic poetry, codework, narrative animations) while the card's own list (works that play with AI, database fictions, VR, games) is not composed. Content replaced by use: the closing offer on submitting a work. The Capture Registry's findings are carried as the archive's claims (CAP-1-01–CAP-1-14); two are shown wrong at card grain by this ledger: '132 works' and '42 nationalities' (CAP-1-03) and the CD-ROM (CAP-1-04) stand on cards 2 and 3, which the census had not saved; the 'forthcoming ELC3' the Registry finds not carried stands only in an HTML comment of card 1 (F8).",
