I appear to be the only person on my timeline not at #story2012 - it sounds like a great conference- Ministry of Stories on making a shop into a magical doorway.
#story2012 Ministry of Stories @mini_stories are setting up "Adventure Tourism Agency" run by young people in Hoxton
#story2012 @Mini_Stories has a newspaper. This makes me immensely happy. Also tinned fear, zombie fresh mints, monster housekeeping books.- Matt Sheret & Simon Thornton on endings, music and the (dying?) art of album creation.
Lovely presentation format, no slides, @simonth and @mattsheret having a conversation #story2012 pic.twitter.com/Ngjj3cZv
The guy from last.fm asks who listens to full albums, 60% or more of audience put hands up. Last.fm guy gets shifty #story2012
The lost art of sequencing an album. I it offers any hope at all the majority of the audience at #story2012 still devour FULL albums- #story2012 ST: Making album is very insular process (unless you have hit single before it comes out, so you have to shuffle it to the start)
Whereas Radiohead = album listens = spike of activity then quick drop off. #story2012
#story2012 seems shame at times that freedom comes 2b silly/muck abt & experiment only once data show its gonna b a success,in constant beta- #story2012 ST: it's easy to choose a final track. MS cites band where every track sounds like epic final track - songs all equally popular.
- #story2012 asks what happens to the creative storytelling potential of albums in the age of single-track downloads
- Jeremy Deller on British war reporting, reenactment and miners.
Jeremy Deller - two types of artists: those whose art tells a story and those whose art is an object of status #story2012
