More DescriptionPoetry. Art. Collaboration. An unlikely marriage of print and digital, BETWEEN PAGE AND SCREEN chronicles a love affair between two characters, P and S. The book has no words, only inscrutable black and white geometric patterns that, when coupled with a webcam, conjure the written word. Reflected on screen, the reader sees him or herself with open book in hand, language springing alive and shape- shifting with each turn of the page.
