Playful wordlbuilding with purpose - experiments in decentralized storytelling

Join us on Thurs., September 2nd at 2:00pm ET for a special playful worldbuilding session with purpose.

Together we’ll be experimenting with decentralized storytelling. Over the course of the session we’ll explore our futures, digital and physical, by creating story blocks using the language of fairly tales and the blockchain. This is the second meetup in a series of events that will launch a new initiative exploring decentralized technology and storytelling from the Columbia DSL.

We’ll be laying the foundation for what evolve into a copyleft massive collaborative experiment similar to previous DSL open projects like Sherlock Holmes & the Internet of Things and Frankenstein AI.

The goal of the project is to explore the cultural, ethical, political and technological impact of emerging decentralized technologies.

All are welcome and we’re in need of some volunteers to help with logistics, promotion, research and worldbuilding. If you’re interested please email hello@digitalstorytellinglab.com
