Education
Having a collection of ideas and sources of inspiration is always good, and it is even better when they are shared with like-minded people.
Which is why it is awesome that Janina, whom you know from over here has now her own blog, on which she shares what inspires her.
Janina: Welcome to the club!
Everyone else: go ahead and visit her blog!
I have not watched those yet, but they might be wort a look:
Kurt Reinhard from the Institut für Theorie, Zurich University of Applied Sciences and Arts, recently posted on Vimeo a fascinating series of short videos on the future of storytelling. The videos juxtapose the perspectives of some key thinkers in this space, including Clay Shirkey (NYU), Joshua Green (UCSB), Ian Condry and Nick Montfort (MIT), Dean Jansen from the Participatory Culture Foundation, Joe Lambert from the Center for Digital Storytelling, and, hmm, Henry Jenkins (USC), among others. Each video is between five and ten minutes long and tackles some of the ways that shifts in the media environment are changing the nature of stories and storytelling.
The complete series can be found on the blog of Henry Jenkins.
