    John Cayley makes language art using programmable media. Recent work has explored aestheticized vectors of reading and ‘writing to be found’ within and against the services of Big Software. In future work he aims to write for a readership that is as much aural as visual. Cayley is a professor of Literary Arts at Brown University, USA.
