Dear Turbulence.org Community, We are thrilled to announce that Turbulence.org will stay online for the foreseeable future. Thanks to the Electronic Literature Organization (ELO), the Turbulence.org Archive (http://turbulence.org and http://archive.turbulence.org) will be supported and hosted by the ELO (financial) and the Electronic Textual Cultures Lab (ETCL) at the University of Victoria, Canada (servers). The ELO was founded in 1999 to foster and promote the reading, writing, teaching, and understanding of literature (e-lit) as it develops and persists in a changing digital environment. A 501c(3) non-profit organization, the ELO includes writers, artists, teachers, scholars, and developers. Turbulence.org commissioned numerous e-lit works and co-organized many public events with ELO members. Both of us served as ELO board members for several years. http://eliterature.org/ The Electronic Textual Cultures Lab (ETCL) engages in cross-disciplinary study of the past, present, and future of textual communication, and is a hub for digital humanities activities across the University of Victoria campus and beyond. http://etcl.uvic.ca/ We want to thank the ELO’s Board, especially its President, Dene Grigar, whose swift action and unwavering support brought us to this new ‘lifesaving’ partnership. Dene is Professor and Director of The Creative Media & Digital Culture Program at Washington State University Vancouver, whose research focuses on the creation, curation, preservation, and criticism of Electronic Literature. Future access to the Turbulence.org Archive will be limited, as we will no longer have direct access to the servers. If any of you would like to update your work, please contact us as soon as possible. Finally, we will no longer need the services of long-time Turbulence.org System Administrator Jesse Gilbert. We would not have survived to-date without Jesse’s skill and dedication. Please join us in thanking him. Warmly, Helen Thorington and Jo-Anne Green -- -- Marc Garrett Co-Founder, Co-Director and main editor of Furtherfield.
