Lucid Mapping--VRML text (among other things).

Hyptertext Renaissance
Take a look at the 16th century "reading wheel" depicted on John Tolva's site.

Eastgate
At Eastgate, we create new hypertext technologies and publish serious hypertext, fiction and non-fiction: serious, interactive writing.     

• Hypertext Reading Room
  Eastgate's Hypertext Reading Room collects Web writing contributed by some of the finest hypertext writers working today. The limitations of the Web are considerable -- especially the difficulty of adapting a Web hypertext to respond to each individual reader, something Storyspace writers (and many others) take for granted.
• Hypertext on the Web
   This [Eastgate] page collects a selection of those web sites that are most     interesting and sophisticated in their use of hypertext structure.

     "native hypertext."

family photographs to create "Heading South."

Bankova's New York City Map
This project is a sort of virtual guide to the most interesting parts of New York City (at least from my point of view). But it isn't a guide in the usual sense. While "walking" through these Web pages you can, as you choose, find yourself "standing" on a particular street, look at photographs, listen to sounds and even read something. In contrast to traditional maps, the aim of NYCMap is not to document the layout of the city or point out its most famous tourist attractions. With the NYCMap I've tried to capture the atmosphere, the energy, or that something (Something?) which I think makes New York City so curiously different from other cities with skyscrapers. At the same time, this project is my personal diary, a document of time I spent there from May to July 1999.

Eric Rodenbeck's Stamen
Investigations into the structure and forms of interactive storytelling via digital media. Stamen asks questions like: why don't websites take over the whole screen? What do we need buttons for, anyhow? What is the relationship of the body to prosthetic technology?

Guyer and Joyce's Lasting Image
"Lasting Image" offers twin views of a single story, whose link portals open to each other and extend outward to tangential, but associated versions. .  .  . In general, links have to be sought out by feeling.
