Interactive Narratives Very Popular Now

Christmas is almost upon us, and our last Digital Storytelling course module has been my biggest challenge this Fall semester. I read about the Internet, mobile devices, kiosks, games, and interactive television too, but the one I am most familiar with is the Internet. I've been using the Internet for a few years, and I google every subject that I am interested in to research new information about it. I found that the NYC Museum of Art and the Interactive Narratives--an assigned field trip site were the most interesting to me. I thought I'd include a picture of the Nativity Scene by artist Geertgen tot Sint Jans in the upper-left corner.)

If you can't get out to New York City to get to the Museum of Natural History, you can surely spend a little time visiting the exhibits there! When I studied geology at CUNY--Brooklyn College a few years ago, I visited Central Park for a field trip plus I visited the Museum of Natural History with a friend to satisfy my gemology field trip there for the course. I was so enthralled with the gemology and weather exhibits that I spent hours there investigating the interactive kiosks there.

I didn't have a mobile phone then, but now I "phone home" just like ET whenever I'm out and about town. Although I don't have a cell phone camera yet, my brothers send me emails with up-to-the-minute pictures frequently of places they're visiting and people they meet.
