Brielleariana: "Transmedia is such a new concept that I had to physically add it to my Word document dictionary to avoid the stupid red lines" ...
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
This is a fascinating post, coming as it does, from a fan's perspective. Darceny is a website that acts as both a book and viewing club: "the place to discuss Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice and its modern day adaptation, The Lizzie Bennet Diaries."

A great way to teach using trains edit storytelling.

I love Word dictionary updates as tiny markers of substantive change--I had to add 'cocreation' and 'cocreator' to mine along with transmedia. Interestingly, it already knew 'prosumer.'

Frank Rose: '"If it doesn't spread, it's dead": With this pithy dictum, Henry Jenkins summed up the nature of media distribution in the Internet age.'

You should also check out Spreadable Media's website.
Mattia Nicoletti's curator insight,
January 19, 3:15 AM
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.
In this interesting interview what comes out is that storytelling and simplicity is a winner in a spreadable world. Delete the scoop?

Christopher Shamburg: "My first tact is to legitimize the practice of creative appropriation by having the class explore it in literary history—from Shakespeare, who hardly has an original plot, to Chaucer’s use of Homer, to Milton’s ‘missing scenes’ from the Bible, to more contemporary works such as John Gardner’s Grendel and the Geraldine Brooks’ March, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 2006."
The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:
Another interesting reminder [see yesterday's scoop Da Vinci on Transmedia] that modern storytelling techniques actually have deep cultural roots.

Lauren Davis: "Fan fiction and fan art are both enormous components of our popular culture [...] But, sometimes creators, publishers, and studios claim that works of fan art and fan fiction violate their copyright.

I have been intrigued at transmedia storytelling for some time. I really appreciate these resources for getting started in using or explaining transmedia in education or marketing.
