  • the Industrial History of transmedia storytelling wizards jungles men of steel
    2017
    Co-Authors: M Freeman
    Abstract:

    Tracing the Industrial emergence of transmedia storytelling – the practice of telling stories across multiple media – this book provides a historicized intervention into understandings of the phenomenon, the first full-scale study of the subject. Transmedia storytelling is one of the most aesthetically theorised component of media convergence, and one which has gained significant academic and industry presence over the course of the last decade or so. For Henry Jenkins (2006), transmedia storytelling refers to the convergence of many textual media forms across platforms and as a practice of media production has been primarily seen as a product of our contemporary media moment, one underpinned by digital or Industrial convergences. Despite some acknowledgements of the importance of recognising the History of transmedia storytelling, this book explores transmedia storytelling outside and prior to such contemporary convergences. This book aims to fully historicize the telling of stories across multiple media forms as strategies of advertising, licensing, and industry partnerships underpinned by broader Industrial-cultural developments towards Industrialization, consumer culture, and media regulation across the first half of the American 20th century.

  • Contaminants in Norwegian fjord sediments: Industrial History or future source?
    Journal of Soils and Sediments, 2010
    Co-Authors: Gijs D. Breedveld, Jens Skei, Audun Hauge
    Abstract:

    Norwegian fjords have been accumulating contaminants since early Industrialisation. The key question for sediment management in Norway is whether the sedimentary contaminant record is an archive of Industrial History or a future source of contaminants to the fjord environment. Innovative sediment management strategies are being developed in Norway to find solutions which are both cost-effective and sustainable.
