Ever play 11th hour or Myst? This reminds me of that.. interesting to see it catching on outside of a PC. Is this sort of technological story-telling something invented or is it remembering things forgotten?

An excellent visualization, according to Edward Tufte, expresses "complex ideas communicated with clarity, precision and efficiency." Few forms of communication are as persuasive as a compelling narrative. To this end, the visualization needs to tell a story to the audience. Storytelling helps the viewer gain insight from the data.

Spreadable media is ispirational for the next tv. It's about spreading contents through media. It's about web 1.0 and 2.0. It's about retro culture.

A “total fiction” this complex has to be well executed and throughly thought-through to succeed. The trailer is indeed convincing so we’ll have to try out the first free chapter to see if Alt Minds delivers. Viennot thinks this transmedia format is set to replace traditional TV shows in the near future. Quite an audacious opinion, but the interactivity and adaptability to various supports will surely modify our experience as viewers and as gamers. We might end up with a pretty messed up generation, completely paranoid and so confused that it can tell the difference between reality and fiction. Hum, that should be interesting.

In order for this video to really work and feel “of a piece” with the forthcoming movie, it was essential for Denis Leary to appear as Captain George Stacy.
