Abstract or Description

A twenty minute presentation of recent research at The Story 2016 by Thomson & Craighead alongside journalists, broadcasters, bloggers, scientists and photographers all engaged in aspects of story telling. The Story is a one-day conference about stories and story-telling, to be held at The Conway Hall, London, on Friday, February 19th, 2016. The Story will be a celebration of everything that is wonderful, inspiring and awesome about stories, in whatever medium possible. We’re hoping to have stories that are written, spoken, played, described, enacted, whispered, projected, orchestrated, performed, printed – whatever form stories come in, we hope to have them here. The Story is not about theories of stories, or making money from stories, but about the sheer visceral pleasure of telling a story. Whether it is in a game, a movie, a book, or a pub, we’ve all heard or told or been part of stories that have made us gasp, cry or just laugh. There have never been so many stories, never so many ways to tell them. The Story will be a celebration of just a small sample of them.
