#HumorStorytelling

Human Presence and Humor Make Us Better Storytellers

Mar 8, 2019

12:30pm – 1:30pm CT

In this session, we will discuss how the human presence and infusing humor into the presentation enlivens storytelling and underscores the importance of communally shared experience in technologically driven works.
