Dave Miller
It's an Online Soap Opera
Corrugation Street--by Dave Miller--is an experiment in collaborative storytelling and networked narratives. It’s a soap opera that you can help write. Get involved in making the story. Be a co-author, co-illustrator or a researcher. Change the subject of the story, the mood, or the look and feel. Create your own unique version of the story, told in your own personal way.
Chinese Cocklepickers is an interactive narrative which deals with the tragedy of the chinese migrant workers who died in Morecambe Bay, in the tragic events of February 2004. There are many separate and interconnected strands to this story: the experience of the workers who drowned, the bosses exploiting their cheap work, the reactions and feelings of the local people, the families in China and their reactions, and lastly the media/political reactions and economics behind the story. These strands are presented as parallel narratives through the story. Each one is small view of the bigger picture, each giving a different perspective. Users can choose their own path through the separate strands, so that they can affect, choose or change the plot. The result, we hope, is that each user experiences the story in a different way, and gains a unique perspective of the story. Design/story: Dave Miller; Programming: Kalle Kormann.
Dave Miller is currently studying a Master's Degree at Ravensbourne College, Kent, UK. His focus is on exploring new interactive story possibilities using networked technology. He's set up a blog to help develop his project and dissertation.

Nathaniel Stern (Johannesburg/New York City) is an internationally
exhibited installation and video artist, net.artist and performance
poet. His interactive installations have won awards in New York,
Australia and South Africa, and his net.art has been featured in
festivals all over Europe, Asia and the US. Nathaniel's collaborative
physical theatre and multimedia performance work with the Forgotten
Angle Theatre Collaborative has won three FNB Vita Awards and has seen
three main stage features at the Grahamstown Festival, South Africa. His
poetry repertoire includes CBGBs and the Nuyorican Poets Cafe, the US
National Poetry Slam and the South African HIV/AIDS Arts, Media & Film
Festival. Nathaniel's work, which ranges from academic research to
performative spaces, asks viewers to unpack the everyday, and 'look
again' at our relationships with the world, each other, and ourselves.
It explores said connections, and their implicit sociopolitical
questions, as always incipient, continually emerging.

A Lion King Remake
This is what you get when you add:
40 or so severely fatigued freshmen game design students
+ a cruel instructor ready to indulge in his student's childhood dreams (which in this case, are sponsored by the Disney Corporation).
+ a staged classroom battle and eventual consensus over candidates for 'remake' (close competitors included Terminator 2, Harry Potter & LOTR).
+ each student given two 15 second segments of LK to remake.
chaos ensues
