Exploring the boundaries of what digital spaces can offer
We share a discussion from the Melbourne Digital Writers’ Festival.
The internet continues to open up new pathways for writing: for finding new audiences, and for expanding the way writers can create and present their work. These exciting panellists are interested in exploring the boundaries of what digital spaces can offer the written word, how this writing intersects with physical spaces, and where the reader fits into the whole thing.
Commissioned as part of the International Literature Showcase 2015–2021; a partnership between National Centre for Writing, British Council and Arts Council England, supported by Creative Scotland, Arts Council Northern Ireland and Wales Arts International.
