Jonathan Richards "Deciding what text to put on an interactive button can be difficult, not least because of the unusual grammar of the 'interactive voice'. Here, we propose a test to use when in doubt."

The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:

A decidedly quirky, but interesting, post.

Mike Jones:  "In any discussion and professional practice of ‘new media’ there is a swag of terminology that gets kicked around;  cross-media, multi-platform & transmedia, interactive and pervasive media, emergent, non-linear and participatory storytelling, etc etc…"

The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:

This post is full of interesting nuggets of information.  From definitions, to examples, to process and opinion, this post takes you past cross-platform, multi-platform, and transmedia, into the realm of immersive experiences.

Interactive theatre: five rules of play from an audience perspective

Interactive theatre: five rules of play from an audience perspective | Transmedia: Storytelling for the Digital Age | Scoop.it
Audiences have never been hungrier for experience, but these productions need a rigorous approach, says Miriam Gillinson
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:

Great advice from a very pertinent perspective.

This a new age for enjoying performances. We invited the radio into our homes. We opened our door to televisions, to the internet and everything else that has come with it. But this is a reversal in the arts, where we the audience are being invited in. Theatre is no longer set in building- but like heart that defines the home, the audience will now define the performance.

This article is useful when designing your own theatrical pieces for assignments. It allows you to think if you want a passive or interactive audience, and where the boundaries lie for this style of theatre.
