I have returned from Washington, D.C., and am (as expected) having one of those days where there’s something that has to be done everywhere I look. I am therefore going to be largely unavailable all day while I catch up client stuff, answer emails, tidy house, work out, etc. Sheesh.
On the upside, I may finally be within sight of finishing up a couple of things that I’ve been working on for years, so that has me excited. Also, in an explosion of complete lack of self-control, I stopped at The Apple Store on the way home from O’Hare last night and picked up my own copy of Tiger. So far it’s pretty cool, with the biggest improvements for me being Dashboard and the new Dictionary tool, wherein one selects an unfamiliar word and presses control-command-D and a definition appears. I’m sure I’ll post more about this as the week goes on. Right now, though, there’s a huge G signal up in the sky. I’m needed in way too many places at once!
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 »
