Hi, hypernarrative is a blog by Wilbert Baan about Art, Media and Technology with a focus on interactive storytelling. If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed with Google or Netvibes. I'll post a few messages a week. Thanks for visiting!
At one moment a few years ago (2002) I used my webcam to record what was playing on television at that moment. With war being a major media and political issue at that point I created this short video representing the paradigm used by media to represent the war. With protagonists, antogonists, commenters and embedded media. Making this the way I did was not an attack on media it is a confirmation that visual media needs characters and a plot for representation. By organizing those you can use everything you want to create a story. Representation is all about context.
To play the video Flash 8 is required.
