House of Leaves, MyHouse.WAD, and Adapting the Ergodic

from Adapt or Die · host Pippa Russell & KJ Minzner

KJ tells Pippa all about House of Leaves, a work so ergodic it's basically unadaptable, and how one DOOM modder was crazy enough to adapt it anyway. And if you don't know what ergodic means, don't worry, we get into it!
