The podcast team are joined in the studio this week by Tim Wright, digital storyteller, to futurecast the future of entertainment. Tim, whose work includes the web series Online Caroline and the Twitter re-telling of Romeo and Juliet as Such Tweet Sorrow, is on hand to discuss how interactive technologies are changing the ways we tell stories, and how consumers are now an essential part of the narrative.
Expanding on this theme, Frank Rose, Wired editor and author of the new book The Art of Immersion, shares examples of some of the most innovative storytelling projects of recent years, and gives advice on what the new breed of people who wish to tell stories – for brands or just for the sake of it – should think about when creating them.
The team tackle the latest news stories, including Cisco's discontinuation of the Flip camera series, the reported sale of British startup TweetDeck to microblogging service Twitter, and Spotify's new, leaner and free streaming music model. We've also got your feedback on what you think serendipity is.
There are plenty of rabbit holes to fall into in this week's podcast, so have a listen and tell us what you think.
