AMMDI is an open-notebook hypertext writing experiment, authored by Mike Travers aka mtraven. It's a work in progress and some parts are more polished than others. Comments welcome! More.
New approach: will put in progress or hopeful entries here, not just completion awards.

reread after 40 years or so...based on a random Reddit convo. No it wasn't that horribly sexist, although it had a nerdy utilitarian take on sex itself.
Normally a Powers fan, this didn't quite do it for me. Maybe too close to home. One of the main characters is a hacker from Evanston, my hometown. Also "Playground" was one of the systems of Vivarium which also did quite a lot of modeling of ocean life. The book was a bit too schematic. Still some lovely depictions of ocean life. Also a nice ref to Finite and Infinite Games, underscoring the theme of life as Play.
