Comments on: jetlagged gobsmacked backtracked http://myplaceoryours.org.uk/chris-meade-overleaf/jetlagged-gobsmacked-backtracked/ My Place or Yours is a new kind of writer residency across five regions of England, in real and virtual spaces, exploring the theme of place. Take a moment to wander round and make it your place. We’d love to hear from you.

Certainly the technology makes those multiple choice type forms easier to present - but next we need writers to make genuinely compelling stories that work in these ways. I'll blog about this soon.

So, the story would write itself dependent on where you were? Does that mean the writer creates different versions ahead of time which the technology then chooses between? I'm really interested in whether the way our brains interact with narrative is changing, as we develop more multiplatform ways of thinking and being. I was at a talk earlier this year where a guy (I forget his name) was talking about research into the way our brains are evolving, saying that all this interface with technology is changing our neural pathways. Do you know any good sources of research on that? It's fascinating stuff. geo-loating – that’s a new one for me. So, the story would write itself dependent on where you were?
