Andrés Ramos's curator insight, December 24, 2014 5:02 PM

Es un proyecto con un importante impacto social que aprovecha múltiples expresiones y representaciones en textos plurales como el comic, arte callejero, contenido de aplicaciones y demás; un uso más allá de lo comercial como tendencia del transmedia.

The Digital Rocking Chair's insight:


Kathryn Nave:  'Jordanian social activist, Suleiman Bakhit believes we can fight ISIS with comic books. "Everything begins with a story," he told the audience at WIRED2014. "Narratives and myths give us a sense of purpose, they give us a compelling sense of direction in our lives."'

Anca Toader's curator insight, December 12, 2014 10:56 AM

A twist on Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's famous speech about "the danger of a single story". Suleiman Bakhit explains the toxic effect of the 'single story' in the Middle East where it creates "terrorism disguised as heroism". His solution to this problem? Comic books. Fascinating!
