« Dreams of Cobras » est un hypertexte à 9 nœuds. L’œuvre tourne autour du thème du serpent cobra. L’internaute peut naviguer de deux façons dans le site, soit en activant le curseur sur les mots d'une phrase située dans l'image du serpent, soit en cliquant sur des hyperliens placés dans le texte.

Citations:

Most of these stories either start or end with "and then I woke up". The question that is never asked is what did you wake up to, or from? Was it the same world, or were your memories of the world so far distant that this seemed to be the same one? What was the betrayal of pain like, seen from the distance of innumerably infinite galaxies? When you find out, tell me. Tell me, really, was it the death you feared, or merely the pretence of living?

Notes:

« This is a micro-hypertext with nine nodes. Simply "slide" your mouse on the cobra, and watch the words change and coalesce. You can also click on any underlined word to begin. (To get to these links on the right-hand side of the screen, hold the mouse button down while you move the mouse. This will prevent new text from being loaded as you move the mouse pointer over the image.) »
