In relation to this weeks reading, Making (with) Korsakow, we unpacked some of the ideas that came up. Hannah split us up and we had to answer a few questions about these ideas. If I was to put them all in one sentence it was to briefly describe the idea in your own words and […]
This is how the interactive documentary software Korsakow is described in the article by Anna Wiehl, which I think is a great description of what Korsakow is capable of, as it gets the user to connect a lot more powerful to the content, forming a stronger emotional connection to the documentary piece. During this class I got up […]
After a couple ideas been thrown around the room, between Olivia and Antonia, I gave an idea of doing an interactive documentary on the effect that the most recent hail storm had on Melbourne’s business, houses and families (influence from pbs ‘after the storm‘). On the surface it look’d do able but after fleshing it […]
Our interactive small scale content involved the qualities of Hyperlinks and having a Cross Platform environment. These two qualities worked together very effectively because you are able to implement many different diverse platforms that attract lots of unique demographics.

Firstly, Darcy got up and showed us an interactive fictional documentary; I think it was, where you switched between two videos by clicking the […]
As I continued to look back at last weeks reading ‘Miles, Adrian. Network Literacy: The New Path to Knowledge. pp. 201–08’ and some of the notes that I wrote down, this idea of network literacy influenced my idea generation. From my research and readings I found that network literacy is being able to participate with […]
“Mainstream audiences are finally ready to adventure beyond the familiarity of linear structures” (Burke, 2007) and so am I. With Assessment 2 in mind, thinking about what small scale online screen media work I should develop, the quote from the WIRED article stated above really starts influenced me to think of something diverse and unique.
