Platform-Agnostic Storytelling // Transmedia // Story Hacking // Narrative Design
About
I’m Jay Bushman. Pleased to meet you.
What Do I Do?
I make stories. Big ones, little ones, strange ones, twitter ones. I believe any method of information transmission is a potential platform for telling a story, and I’m privileged to live in a time when there is an explosion of communication methods.
What’s The Loose-Fish Project?
The Loose-Fish Project is an experiment in marrying classic stories with new technologies. So far, the Loose-Fish has published “The Good Captain,” a Twitter-adaptation of the Herman Melville novella “Benito Cereno,” and “The Spoon River Metblog,” a modern rendition of “Spoon River Anthology” in the form of a group blog. Works in development include re-imaginings of Austen and Shakespeare.
What is Twitter Theater?
Twitter can be used as a broadcast medium for telling stories, much like old-time radio. There’s something incredibly engaging about having little chunks of story content popping up in the middle of your Twitter stream. See some examples here.
