1. Julian Caesar Blanco Roleplaying, storytelling, and the future of social networking
2. The art of the story is changing. Rather than just a linear tale told in words written or spoken, today's technology is giving rise to a full new paradigm.
3. During this new world, videos, photos, words, and ideas all close to inform an integrated tale, which may convey more of the essence of the character than in any previous incarnation.
4. According to Julian Caesar Blanco, through the employment of social networking, a tool wont to express who we are as people, creative individuals can now express who their characters truly are. We are right on the cusp of an entirely new horizon of fiction possibilities.
5. In a book, you've got a really, very flat view of the universe. Things have two dimensions; space, which is that the virtual environment where the action takes place, and time; which is represented by the turning of the pages as you progress towards a conclusion.
6. In some cases, you'll need a glossary or an index that may provide added depth, but normally you're constricted by a linear tale. Movies are much the identical way. You sit there for 2 hours around, and a story is told to you.
7. Even once they play with time and space within the story, the character of the beast is that you just can only watch one thing at a time, you'll only keep track of what is happening in one location at any given point.
8. When you get into multiples, things become a touch deeper. A series of novels can retrieve and forth within the planet, with the actions relating to previous books, or retelling the identical story from other points of view.
9. The identical is true of films that may reference each other and weave tales of perspective and time throughout the continuity of the remainder of the series.
10. In extreme cases, you'll be able to even have alternate histories, what if tales, and stories from other dimensions involving the identical characters, multiplying the dimensionality of the story in an exponential number of how.
11. This is often the case in comic books, mangas, or serials, where most literature is produced around a cohesive story that the inherent nature of the kind is to explore every detail in greater depth and with a broader sense of imagination.
12. The next step is to combine and match media in such a way, that a story can become intimately integrated.
13. While movies do have glossaries, and books, and websites, and forums, and even fan pages, these are all opened up, they are not a part of any coherent whole. They're ancillary items that are tacked on after the fact, instead of being generated as one focused effort.
14. The internet is giving us the tools to form that cohesive effort. It's making those tools available to everyone, turning even the smallest amount tech- savvy amongst us into directors, producers, and writers of their multimedia productions.
15. Through social networking technologies, stories are being created spontaneously, and in collaborative efforts, which tell tales of depth beyond the wildest dreams of the traditional two-dimensional texts.
16. While these stories are often awkward, misshapen, and broken, that's because they're being told by real people. they're true expressions of humanity.
17. The social network, originally a tool for expressing ourselves, has now become a vehicle for expressing truth nature of characters, and to inform their story in a more full-featured manner than ever before.
18. To conclude the above Julian Caesar Blanco contributes many to history as he describes history through his roleplays by different techniques and be modern technology.
