CLASS ACTIVITIES- Discussion on Read/Watch/Play/Explore materials due today
- Class Guest: Cindy Poremba, Assistant Professor, OCAD
- Work on your own Interactive Non-Fiction Storytelling projects (as time allows)
- Gameplay from Games for Actors and Non-Actors (as time allows)
- "Real | Unreal: Crafting Actuality in the Documentary Videogame," dissertation by Cynthia Katherine Poremba. Review the Introduction (which was assigned reading for Week 2); Skim (close reading is not essential) Part 2 (pages 33-58) and Part 7 (the Conclusion).
- SPENT (2011), by the Urban Ministries of Durham and McKinney
- Actual Sunlight (2014), by Will O'Neill
- Please come to class prepared to engage our guest in conversation.
- Come to class fully prepared to work independently on your Interactive Non-Fiction Storytelling project (in other words, you may want/need to bring: hard drive, headphones, your own footage or imagery, etc.)
- Browse the Klynt Gallery of projects in order to get a sense of the type of work produced with Klynt, and familiarize yourself with the software (the website has a robust LEARN section with Tutorials, Documentation, and Webinars).
- Come to class prepared to lead us through one or more games from Augusto Boal's Games for Actors and Non-Actors. Note that many of the games require a larger group, so keep this in mind and select something appropriate. We may or may not get to play during today's class but from now onwards (until the end of the quarter), come prepared to lead us in play because we may decide to do so spontaneously at any time.
