We want
value for our

We expect a
fast
response
We expect

We are
storytelling
animals
Fueled by
emotion, instinct
and social
connection
AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION NATIONAL CONVENTION ★ WASHINGTON DC ★ AUGUST 7-10-2014!
Our lives are full of stories
that travel across media,
whether intentional or not

AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION NATIONAL CONVENTION ★ WASHINGTON DC ★ AUGUST 7-10-2014!
Whole is less than sum of the parts. Media becomes redundant
and less satisfying.
Whole is more than sum of the parts by creating a larger
‘storyworld,’ enhancing sense of immersion and motivating
audience to seek out other parts.
