In this week's Lunchtime Talk, Dr. Rosie Poebright will share their experience of creating Wild Stories and screenless interactive story experiences which explore the fields of neuroscience, philosophy and anthropology.

It's 2024 and we need better stories. Ones that crash out of screens, crawl off the page and wriggle out of VR headsets in order to play with the full, fleshy, material nature of experience.

Dr. Rosie Poebright, Creative Director of Splash & Ripple creates screenless interactive story experiences called Wild Stories. In this talk they'll describe some of their key findings from 5 years of practice-based artist PhD research. They will attempt to squish down many years worth of insight and research and call storytellers to action to create more messy, surprising, and undoing stories for their audiences.
