Storytelling is the unique domain of humanity. It is how we make sense of the world and our place in it. On a personal level, the stories we tell ourselves is how we form and create the reality of our lives. These stories impact our interactions and relationships with those in our lives. On a societal level, the stories told about history, current events, organisations, societies and cultures affect our collective way of being with each other and the planet. The control of this narrative from oral traditions and cave paintings to the social media platforms and mass media channels are forever shaping our lives. This next evolution of technology-enabled storytelling holds the promise of moving humanity from isolation to true connection.
