So this weekend I did a small amount of work, finally experienced Akira Kurosawa’s The Seven Samurai (I’d seen Rashomon before, so I wasn’t a complete Kurosawa virgin), read China Mieville’s excellent debut novel King Rat, did a prodigious amount of hammering on the new site for Tohubohu, and spent a few hours in the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art, where I conducted a dry run of the media experiment I posted about last week. It’s no wonder, then, that I should be waking up tired – but I am, boy, am I tired. And, as always, miles to go before I sleep. (Not that sleep is actually doing much good lately. Yeesh.)
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 »
