Stir Fry Texts

Stir Fry Texts is highly political hypertext about authorship, economy and the capitalist society in general. Through the appropriate tool of word generation, the authors are questioning the need for copyrights. Hypertext in this specific case allows a demonstration of arbitrariness of words and letters. If we do not posses the letters that we are using, why do we insist on making money from them? This hypertext shows how words and ideas can be (easily?) created, not for the economic reason, but for pure fun, the need for artistic expression or something else.
