The first edition of this volume, brings together a number of concepts we have been exploring since our launch one year ago that can all be understood under the rubric of Social Design.
Social Design: The strategic implementation of social media to deepen or broaden the nature of an artistic project.
Sarah Garton Stanley celebrates this important anniversary with an exploration of what we hope to achieve with this site, where we started, where we are now, and exciting news about who has joined the project. One of those people is Alberta Theatre Projects’ Laurel Green, who interviews Graham F Scott about his role over the past year-and-a-half as Digital Dramaturg for SpiderWebShow. My contribution to the edition concentrates on what social design means this year, which will probably mean something different next year, as tools morph and humans adjust their behaviours accordingly.
