A more serious comment: I do agree that our notion of text can be more interesting than a homomorphically 1d stream of words. In a way we've already achieved this, just by pulling the usual academic extension of "text" to movies, tv, comics, software, whatever.
The hard thing is that the process of reading something still has a rather narrow bottleneck, our eyes and attention.
