Interactive Insights into the Biology of Story

Filmmaker Amnon Buchbinder has assembled a vast, networked, interactive archive of filmed insights from those who work with story in a wide range of fields: screenwriters, novelists, storytellers, physicians, clergy, scientists, journalists, lawyers, more. The emergent premise: stories form through the patterns of self-organization and inter-dependence that also define biological life. But humans also create anti-stories - formula and fundamentalist narratives - that lack these living qualities. This inspiring workshop will demonstrate a unique interactive documentary, offering a “virtual panel discussion” elicited from 50 hours of edited material and guided by audience participation.
