Worlds Collide: Storytelling in Art and Business

June 08, 2011 Comments (0)

On June 8, 2011 I gave a talk via teleconference through the Worldwide Story Work group. This blog post contains links to all of the topics discussed, images from the artists mentioned, and a podcast of the actual call.

Worlds Collide: Storytelling in Art and Business Are you an artist or a businessperson? Chances are you’re a bit of both. In this call, I will highlight storytelling patterns, projects, and players from both art and business. We’ll examine why storytelling has gone from bad word to buzzword, discuss interdisciplinary storytelling trends, and envision what’s next for creative and professional story practitioners who dare to let worlds collide.
