Where to post videos online, curate and share them?
Hi Sam and all,
Im super excited that this session is happening and would love to be involved. Recently [Ariane] left this comment on one of the posts about a discussion which is the red thread tying a lot of what we are exploring in Edgeryders. It reminded me of the importance of storytelling and content curation in supporting one another, and others in bridging the widening gap between the need to make a living and the need to make meaning:
I feel that intellectual frameworks are good but I’d make a strong plea for emotional frameworks and stories… Even when we are trying to capture the attention and heart-minds of policymakers, legislators, politicians, it’s not data or rationality that persuade so much as emotions/morals/values. What’s the P2P guide (I’m late to the conversations, I know, I apologize)- I mean how would it work, how do people access it? How about we partner with ARTE and other TV channels to do a reality TV on The Good Life (Meaningful, fulfilling, contributing value & getting rewarded for that). ?
Perhaps what Ariane and I could bring to the table is more of a focus on the content curation and storytelling aspects. As well as thinking about how to reach and engage many more people through the video materail produced during lote3. Perhaps we could come up with a nice format that could fit nicely into the unMonasterian’s Cookbook? Some inspiration:
- A friend has built Linklib, a clever online-mobile application for using video as cultural containers and pointers to other content elsewhere online.
- An acquaintance of mine has set up video magazine.
- A third alternative are storytelling spaces like medium or cowbird.
I just realised it’s probably a good idea to put together a list of accounts where videos can be posted online if the participants in the session want to:
