The Future of Storytelling: the Event
From the minstrels of medieval Europe to the griots of West Africa, for millennia the practice of storytelling was unidirectional. But in a networked world brimming with social tools and technologies, the relationship between the narrator and the audience is undergoing a profound transformation. This panel will explore the evolving nature of audience engagement, and the increasing desire by users to grab hold of the narrative and make it their own. Learn from leading practitioners how to develop systems and content that can drive audience participation, and ultimately empower users with true agency in the narrative.
