Exploring the New Book: Substack/Patreon/Metaverse

Saturday 13 May 2023, 11:00 AM – Midday, Featherston School Hall. $15

During the Middle Ages in Northern Europe the course of human history was changed when Johannes Gutenberg invented the movable-type printing press and printed the first book mechanically. Are we facing a similar game-changing shift today in how we read?

From Substack and Patreon to the Metaverse, there are now multiple ways to read and experience the book today through the internet.

Join one of Substack’s Pro-deal writers, Emily Writes and filmmaker, illustrator, animator, and now the creator of other worlds in the Metaverse, Martin Baynton, as they discuss the brave new world of the book in the 2020s with investigative journalist and moderator, Mike White.
