Empathy, Neurochemistry, and the Dramatic Arc: Paul Zak at the Future of StoryTelling 2012

"The emotionally charged story recounted at the beginning Dr. Paul Zak's film—of a terminally ill two-year-old named Ben and his father—offers a simple yet remarkable case study in how the human brain responds to effective storytelling."

 

Want to know how a dramatic story structure affects our brain chemistry and leads us to make donations? Then watch this very engaging and informative 5 minute video!

 

The video explains several neuroscience research projects that were conducted (don't worry - the video is NOT boring) about the effects a short dramatic story had on people's brains and behavior.

 

And it explains how to structure a story to make the biggest impact. I wish all scientist could do such a great job in explaining their work and its meaning. Enjoy!

The 15-Year-Old Who Bought Two Houses : NPR

On the way to a cooking class on Thursday night, I heard a segment on NPR about Willow Tufano, a girl who saved up money for her first house by selling things people left behind in foreclosed homes. After NPR did a story on her earlier this year, she became a little bit famous (and bought another house).  I thought her story was interesting so I did a little research and found this and thought I would Scoop.It and share....
