Designing Worlds explores Story Quest Reborn

In this episode, shown at 2pm SLT Monday 8th April, we are returning to a concept that we explored once before, back in 2010 – so fourteen years ago. The concept was called Story Quest, and it was created by Jena Ball, known as Jenaia Morane in Second Life, and it focused on the life and times of a person called Uncle D.

This was an exploration of a life affected by HIV/AIDS which used a non-linear narrative to encourage us not just to explore and investigate the story but also to reflect on Uncle D and the disease itself – and you had a chance to become part of the story yourself.

You can see the show on the Designing Worlds Vimeo channel at: https://vimeo.com/channels/dworlds. Or you can join us for our Watch Party in the beautiful Designing Worlds studios in the Garden of Dreams from 2pm onwards.

And now, Jenaia Morane has created a new and much expanded version of Story Quest, which is just opening to the Second Life public – and beyond.

In this episode, we travel through the Quest ourselves with Jenaia, but we are careful not to expose all its secrets – those we want our audience to come and explore for themselves!

But first, do watch the show – on the web or at the Watch Party in the Designing Worlds Studio.
