The Healing Self is the new breakthrough book in self-care by bestselling author and leader in integrative medicine Deepak Chopra and Harvard neuroscientist Rudolph E Tanzi.

  • Tracking the Transmediality of Red Nose Day
    volume 5 issue 10/2016 SMALL CHANGE – BIG DIFFERENCE: TRACKING THE TRANSMEDIALITY OF RED NOSE DAY Matthew Freeman Digital Academy, College of Liberal Arts Bath Spa University Newton Park, Newton St Loe Bath, BA2 9BN United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract: This article analyses transmedia as a non-fictional social phenomenon, discussing the significance of participation, documentary, and community media. Specifically, the article conceptualises transmedia through the lens of charity politics. To do so, I use the Comic Relief charity campaign in the UK to trace how the social traditions, ways of life and sensibilities associated with Red Nose Day have evolved into emerging digital technologies to shape this charity campaign across the borders of multiple media platforms. Embracing how social specificity informs non-fictional transmedia, I position ‘infotainment’ as a key conceptual logic of non- fictional transmedia, showing how audiences follow the ‘ethos’ of Red Nose Day across multiple media. Keywords: Transmedia Storytelling, Non-Fiction, Charity Campaigns, Documentary, Community, Participation, BBC, Red Nose Day 1 Introduction Today’s convergent media industries readily produce stories across multiple media, telling the tales of Batman across comics, film and television, inviting audiences to participate in the Star Wars universe across cinema, novels, the Web, and more. This transmedia phenomenon may be a common strategy in Hollywood’s blockbuster fiction factory, tied up with ideas of digital marketing and fictional world-building, but transmedia is so much more than movie franchises. Yet while scholarship dwells on transmedia’s commercial, global industry formations,1 smaller communities and far less commercial cultures now make new and very different uses of transmedia, in some ways re-thinking transmedia by applying it to non- fictional projects as a socio-political strategy for informing and unifying local communities.
