Improvising the future of digital storytelling

Like all methods of learning and teaching, storytelling grapples with accelerating cultural and digital transformation. And time zones. I’ll improvise a digital Networked Narrative, or, Exquisite Corpse.  Some storytellers will be live, some recorded, and all woven into a mettisage narrative of the near future. As Nigerian author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie noted, the danger of a single story lies in its incompleteness; métissage counters this by weaving together multiple narratives to honor both unity and diversity.

Join us to discover possible futures of digital storytelling and share your stories in the comments and with your own favorite media.

I’ll be blogging at https://connectingislearning.com and on Mastodon, https://mastodon.social/@mcorbettwilson.
