Philip Nel“Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards” — Søren #Kierkegaard. Cartoon by Tom Gauld
Tyler Cohen@philnel I love how this demonstrates the way comics can play with time, pacing, & simultaneity
@tylerzonia Yes! And it’s a clever graphic embodiment of the backwards/forwards tension in Kierkegaard’s idea.
@philnel comics are great for multi-vocality and the dialectical
@tylerzonia Indeed! Spatialized time! (cf. McCloud, Chute, Spiegelman)
