My mobile storytelling book, The Story, was officially launched in Europe at a party sponsored by Monocle in Zurich Wednesday evening.
The format for the launch event was inside the radio studio for Monocle 24 Radio, with Tyler Bruléhimself moderating and conducting an interview with me, followed by questions from the audience, which included media practitioners, artists, architects and corporate communication types.
Our discussion centered on the media today, the role of print and, of course, the specifics of the book and all about mobile storytelling.
Take a look at some of the moments of the party here:
A day of banner headlines on front pages of US newspapers
Americans will wake up today to big banner headlines as the ones we see here from The New York Times and The Washington Post. It was a historic day Wednesday in Washington as Gordon Sondland, US Ambassador to the European Union, gave convincing testimony and stated that there was, indeed, quid pro quo, in President Trump’s dealings with the Ukraine president. Ambassador Sondland said administration officials were aware of the pressure on Ukraine for investigations that could damage President Trump’s political foes.
