Abstract

Ever since digital technologies became more accessible, it is noticeable, among scholars and authors, an enthusiasm regarding the creative possibilities offered by the digital medium. It is possible to find mentions to the creative freedom and the media convergence possibilities when one researches about creation on a digital medium. However, even though these are used by many authors, a growing preference for more traditional formats, which allude to analogical media, can be noticed. Thus, this paper will present as case studies two brief analysis of two works built in this context: the first one being the hybrid narrative Homestuck, written by Andrew Hussie, which presents itself as highly experimental; and the second one being the comic strips drawn by Hannah Hillam, which are published in her social network pages, such as Instagram, and which present themselves closer to more conventional formats. Even though both works present interesting uses of different artistic languages, such as literature, comics and video games, their authors’ attitudes regarding the creative possibilities in the media in which they are published differ, which can point towards not only a personal choice of their creators but also the preferences of the audiences who read such works
