Chris Milk and the Johnny Cash Project

More storytelling forms, Chris Milk's project initiated before his Arcade Fire/Wilderness Downtown project, he had started brewing a web-based video, a memorial to Johnny Cash.

The project is on the following link:

And everyone could submit drawings for the clip on the following link:

storytelling: Matthew Herbert: How I made a concert out of the Guardian

"Something that appears quite temporary, quite disposable and turn it into a story."

"Matthew Herbert talks through the ideas behind One Day, a composition inspired by the content - and production - of the 25 September edition of the Guardian"

* The piece was performed by the London Sinfonietta on Saturday November 20 2010 at the Royal Festival Hall

Intel Museum of Me

Intel Launched the Museum of Me, an application that asks the user to connect to his Facebook account. Once Museum of Me accesses the user's profile information, basic information, wall, post items, photos, videos, friends' information, the application creates a visualization of the user's social self, under the form of a museum. Of course, this visualization, again, could be shared on Facebook.



The application does not store the information it accesses, also "Intel makes no representation that materials found in the Application are appropriate or available for use in other locations, and access to them from territories where their content is illegal is prohibited."

The outcome becomes a video tour of the virtual museum (that I couldn't save for a reason, not sure it is an option) and a photo gallery of the virtual visit that you could share on your Facebook page:
