Well, I may not be the most eloquent on video, but I dare say that lack of eloquence is typical when exploring a new medium... or genre, like Thomas Nashe was doing. Watch the video for more on Nashe then take a look at the full text of his prose narrative The Unfortunate Traveller here. See if you can spot some similarities with how I deal with being on video and how Nashe dealt with the new genre of prose narrative.

That's not something that I had really thought much about before, the fact that at one time, prose was a new genre. It makes me really want to be more proactive about exploring the potentialities of modern media. Thanks so much for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteI actually thought you were one of the most polished and even eloquent. Did you practice a script, or read from one, or what? It flowed really well.
