Digital Storytelling and Interactive Media

Drawing on at least three readings from class, create an essay in response to the following statements:

“Virtual objects offer a methodology for shifting perception and evoking a sense of otherworldliness that allows us to cognize our perceptions, their shifts and affectations”
(Dolinsky, 295).

“The truth about stories is that that’s all we are. ‘I will tell you something about stories,’ the Laguna storyteller Leslie Silko reminds us, ‘They aren’t just entertainment/ Don’t be fooled/ They are all we have, you see/ All we have to fight off/ Illness and death. You don’t have anything/ If you don’t have the stories’”(King, 92).

Project/ Analysis/ The story must engage with the statements above, and your analysis must draw on the theoretical material in the three articles that you have chosen.

The analysis will be 4-6 pages (excluding the works cited page). Include an intro with a statement of intent and thesis, a detailed analysis of your project, parenthetical references, and a list of works cited.

I have included the required reading choose three:
