Interesting Projects
The cupcake craze has taken over, we need to rally and bring back the donut! Don’t let the Cupcakes Win!
Using a mobile location app, residents of Los Angeles can record and geotag things they would like to change in the city.http://www.la2050.org/

The Signpost project is about revolutionizing the printed press by combining publications with augmented reality technology. The purpose is to no focus on the technology, but to create a new way of storytelling that is engaging, intuitive and natural.
A printed paper is paired with a mobile app, and using AR image recognition a person can browse through the electronic content using the physical printed paper.
There are some AR enabled magazines, but I loved seeing the technology be integrated into a local newspaper, although here the paper is really more of a user interface...

I SMASH SF is a 3-6 player board game where you battle other inhuman demolishers and carve a path of devastation through our beloved city.
A lot of people liked the I SMASH SF game, they used the weekend to develop some monsters for the game. It’s an interesting mix of a board game with a real location (San Francisco).

Thoughts on TransmediaSF SW Experience
•Totally worth the flight from Zurich to West Coast
•54 hrs. too little time to develop a story universe from zero
•Greater focus on story creation tools/methodology would have been huge benefit
•How can we develop a StoryHack planform in Zurich?
•How can we focus on story-technology integration?
•What methodologies/tools should be used in rapid story creation process?

StoryHack ZHWriters/Authors UX/UI Design Developers
•As a writer/artist who have gotten into user experience and startup weekends, a story hackathon is the next logical step
•The purpose will be to see how established stories can be transformed through design and integration with new technologies
•We’re planning to hold the first StoryHack Zurich in the Fall of 2013
•Leading up to the StoryHack we’ll hold workshops on story, narrative, and technology to make the weekend significant, good stories takes time. 54 hours is too short to develop great story material...but it’s plenty of time to hack.http://www.storyhack.ch/
