Collaborating Collapsus; Assignment 9B

Collapsus is an online trans-media experience developed by Submarine Channel and Directed by Tommy Pallotta.  It features a story about a fictional international energy crisis set in the near future and was made as a way to discuss the issue of peak oil (when we've found the most oil we'll ever find and the world's stock of oils grows ever smaller).  The experience is trans-media as mentioned above and features interactive maps, documentary film clips and animated scenes.

I played the game for a while and then recorded my thoughts about the game and trans-media concepts in general.
