El. knyga: American Science Fiction Television and Space: Productions and (Re)configurations (1987-2021)

Joel Hawkes is a Sessional Lecturer in English at the University of Victoria, Canada. Hawkes research is particularly interested in the practices and performances that create the physical and literary spaces we inhabit, and the ritual nature of these. Though primarily a modernist, his work is cross-period and interdisciplinary.  His modernist publications engage with spatial theory, and at present focus on the relatively unknown British modernist Mary Butts.  He has just finished editing Mary Buttss Collected Essays, which will be published by McPherson & Co. in 2021.  Alexander Christie is Assistant Professor of Digital Prototyping at Brock Universitys Centre for Digital Humanities. He has published internationally in a number of journals and collections, including Digital Humanities Quarterly, Social Knowledge Creation in the Humanities, and Reading Modernism with Machines. In addition to creating warped 3D maps ofliterary spaces (z-axis research), he is currently completing a book on modern manuscripts and humanities computing.











Tom is an instructor in English at Camosun College in Victoria, British Columbia.  His research has examined religiosity and the supernatural in twentieth-century American literature.  He is increasingly focused on science fiction storytelling, and in particular cyber punk narratives.
