My Multi-Hyphenate Guest Post on Transmedia Imperfection, part deux

My transmedial musings continue over at Tyler Weaver’s Multi-Hyphenate blog, and the second of my three posts is now up. The short series explores the idea that transmedia properties, especially collaborative ones that encourage audience contribution, need to include a certain degree of imperfection-as-incompleteness in their design. Audiences need a foundation and framework but also […]

Remix Fiction Interview, part deux

The second installment of my interview series at Remix Fiction is up, in which I discuss transmedia and fail to name check Andrea Phillips as one of the driving forces behind the Transmedia Artists Guild: Remix Fiction Television Episode #730.1 (Scott Walker) from Martin Aggett on Vimeo. For more information about the Transmedia Artists Guild, […]

Math, Magic, and Storytelling Shell Games

A writer walks into a doctor’s office. “You gotta help me, doc. I keep hearing about everyone making money from self-publishing, and everywhere I go, someone’s trying to sell me their book.” “I see,” the doctor says, nodding. “So what seems to be the problem?” “Well, I figure if everyone’s writing a book, I should […]

A History and Future of Collaborative Storytelling

This is my (un)scientific, (non-)comprehensive, and (not at all) objective overview of the rise of collaborative storytelling: how we (more or less) got here, and where we may (kinda sorta) be heading. No particular axe to grind or agenda to sell, just my observations after watching this space for a few years. Buckle up, this […]
