The Periodic Table of Storytelling

April 12th, 2011

This is cute. Seems to have gone up about a week ago. I think… Hard to tell with these things.

I like the suggestion that it would make a good dartboard — and that Hollywood should never be allowed to play.

Might be fun to use with Rory’s Story Cubes (maybe for 24-Hour Comics Day!)

Deviant Art says it went up on April 4…
And TVTropes just became ten times more dangerous…

Ah! Okay, I see the date now. Somehow I didn’t expect that info to be buried in the right sidebar.

Shows how often I visit Deviant Art. Must be a generational thing.

I love Rory’s Story Cubes!

Reminds of this one for visual methods by Ralph Engler & Martin Eppler:

Cool! I could definitely see these working together. Will try chopping it up into cards, and see how it plays. Will blog from our website when I get back from traveling.
