The Future of StoryTelling speaker Hangout series returns on Wednesday, January 8th, at 12:30pm EST, and kicks off with an intimate, live-streamed conversation about bridging the gap between art and tech.
As Chief Creative Officer of Google Creative Lab, Robert Wong employs the power of storytelling to help develop amazing technologies like Google Glass. According to Wong, it's not enough for technology to be awesome—it needs to have a great story about why we should love it and how it fits into our lives. See Wong's 5-minute FoST Film, "The fiction of The Science" (embedded below) to better understand why we should never underestimate a creative person's power to shape the future, and join us on January 8th to voice you opinion. Questions can be submitted to Wong on FoST's Google Plus or Twitter (@FoSTorg) accounts, and we'll do our best to include them in the conversation.
Virtual Roundtables feature a different FoST speaker every Wednesday at 12:30pm EST, as part of the ongoing weekly series. Check out the full line-up of speakers and topics on our website here: http://bit.ly/1ej8gFe.
