    Storytelling – First Thoughts

    by

So I did! Except for the 30 seconds or less part. But it IS a big question, after all! […]

    Thanks to Giulia and Alan for helping to exemplify what my greatest hope for the BluePhase transmissions might be. That is bringing listeners to the ‘microphone’ to talk about matters related to ds106 in a free-form manner. This whole thing has fallen together in such a spontaneous and seemingly haphazard manner that I realize the […]

    Last week I was fortunate to spend two days at e-Town, “an intensive two-day Edmonton festival of ideas for entrepreneurial-minded people who get excited by innovation, change and disrupting common thought.” from the e-town website I first read about it in August. It sounded really interesting and I wanted to take part. Instead of attending […]

    September 15, 2013
    Some ragged thoughts on storytelling When I was a little boy, my mother used to reprimand me for telling stories. What she meant was I shouldn’t make up a narrative to explain my actions or bahavior perceived as wrong. She wanted the truth. Yet, I already knew that there was little truth, if any, in […]
