Space Into Game, Time Into Book:
What Comics and Screens Do Together
by Erik Loyer
Made with Panoply
Presented at the Roundtable on New Technologies and the Future of the Humanities at City University of Hong Kong, 2014

“Space Into Game, Time Into Book” is a 20 minute video based on a talk originally given at the Roundtable on New Technologies and the Future of the Humanities at City University of Hong Kong, exploring what comics and screens can do together. A web version of the talk is also available.
