Abstract
The core characteristic of new media literature that differs from traditional print-era literature can be summarized as “digital artistry”. Based on the Cheng Guang interactive platform, the Cheng Guang literature adopts a typical hypertext model and shows a certain degree of representativeness in the creation of digital artistry. Life Reboot fully utilizes the constructive functions of the three elements of hypertext—node, link, and network—to produce aesthetic effects that are different from those of traditional literary works—digital artistry such as composite symbolic text, interactive narrative, and ontolepsis. The use of the three elements of hypertext enables readers to break through the limitations of reality, travel through multi-dimensional space and “parallel universes”, realize a life reboot, reach multiple possible lives, and obtain aesthetic experiences that traditional literary works cannot provide.
