Our free Changing Channels digital conference starts in just over an hour, when we'll be joined by Dmitry Glukhovsky -- the writer behind the Metro novels and video games.

Changing Channels explores the crossover between video games, film, TV, books and more and runs from 10am BST / 5am ET / 2pm PT to 10pm PST / 5pm ET / 2am PT today.
