[This is actually really challenging - in a good way. I'm doing so much right now to develop my career/life and yet I don't really have a concrete vision of where it will lead me. Here's an attempt...]
After ten years doing strategy and change management for a crowdsourced microfunding transmedia service I've developed a strong understand of how storytelling & engagement intertwine to both convey experiences and encourage action from the ma****. I've designed & deployed transmedia stories through ARGs, film & video, music, immersive worlds, video games, and augmented reality layers. I'm currently developing ways to integrate all of these engagement channels into a massively-multiplayer real-world adventure simulation that allows for branching plotlines and ad hoc sub-genres to form within the larger meta-narrative.
This ten year arc has also been a process of deepening my understanding of complexity and emergence in living systems. Particularly, I've been focusing on how large scale systems get coupled together in ways that can both destabilize and drive adaptive measures, for example the relationship between climate and economics. I'm on the verge of finally articulating a vision of global systems and the uniqueness of human evolution, hopefully in a way that will inform the next transmedia meta-narrative.
Both of these paths are leading me to an integration of my previous explorations into human consciousness and mythic structures with the world of technology and behavioral interaction. When Alchemy calls I will be ready to engineer an immersive and engaging meta-narrative platform that will help drive adoption of the best techniques known for mitigating our crises and building resiliency and thrivability.
