So due to a miracle of school planning, every weekend this semester is a three-day weekend. They won’t be long enough. This weekend I finished registering for classes, did my laundry, finished unpacking (mostly), ran errands, explored the wonder that is Davis Square, ate pizza and Indian and some pathetic cooking of my own, read Shakespeare’s Henry V and Brenda Laurel’s Utopian Entrepreneur, dealt with 50+ emails, struggled with a dead G5 for days before determining that the AGP video card was toast (d’oh!), laid the groundwork for obtaining my Harvard library card (whoo hoo!), and a host of other things, but a raft of yet other things remain to be done. Luckily classes tomorrow are light, so I may be able to catch up yet. If you haven’t heard from me yet, sit tight — I’ll get to you ASAP. 🙂
After researching transmedia storyworlds at MIT, guiding Microsoft in its CTO/CXO's think tank, co-founding Microsoft Studios' Narrative Design team, and exploring the future of entertainment and media as the Creative Director and a Research Fellow for USC's Annenberg Innovation Lab, I'm now the Creative Director for USC's World Building Media Lab, a storyteller, a designer, a consultant, and a doctoral student in Media Arts and Practice at USC's School of Cinematic Arts. more »
