HTML5– is across the beginning, middle

thinking like an alchemist. Mixing and
mashing– sometimes failing and flailing–
until you make turn something into gold.

receive. It’s something you experience
with all your senses, including your
sense of control.
60. Fearlessly diving into each new wave of
technology is essential. But keeping your
eye out for sea changes is the bigger trick.

much as it emerges between us all.

Sometimes you lead. Sometimes you
follow. But you’ve got to share a rhythm
if you want to stay together.

personalizing around us. What will it
mean to live our lives inside the bubble
of our own story?
65. Tech and Storytelling: Red Riding Hood 2012
Once upon a time, there was a girl called Little Red Riding Hood, who traveled through the woods using Google Maps
on her mobile phone to navigate the poorly-marked road. She was on a quest to deliver food to her sick grandmother,
who had sent a message to the girl’s Facebook inbox requesting the best rated motza-ball soup on the Lower East Side.
Along the way, a terrible wolf spots her and decides that he’d like to eat the girl. Using the 4G wi-fi connection on his
5-inch phone tab, he begins searching popular recipes for little girl. He finds several on Pinterest alone.
He approaches Little Red Riding Hood, she exclaims, “Oh, what a large touch screen you have!” She then posts a
rather artsy photo of the wolf on Instagram, to which she receives many tweets, texts and Facebook warnings in reply.
In the meantime, the wolf checks in at her grandmother's house, becomes Mayor and swallows the old woman whole.
He then plays Angry Birds Space, cues up “Hungry Like the Wolf” on Spotify, and patiently waits.
When Little Red Riding Hood arrives, she notices that her grandmother looks suddenly very large and hairy – in stark
contrast to her most recent Match.com photos. The girl quickly consults Twitter, only to find her grandmother’s update
“Being eaten by a wolf. Help!” Luckily for her, it had been retweeted so many times that it sat near the top of her feed –
right next to the wolf’s recent update, “’Bout to eat sum grl. LOL. #YUMYUM”
Little Red Riding Hood turns and runs out the door immediately, only to run into the Huntsman, who should have been
there to help, as Bottlenose was putting all the signals together in a semantically cohesive fashion, but was simply too
busy episnorting season one of Game of Thrones on HBO Go, and really couldn’t be bothered.
The end.
