One of the great joys of following developments in new media
storytelling is being part of something that is unfolding and evolving
in the moment. Now get a load of this.
 
This link describes the fascinating use of new media technologies to
tell the story of an industrial accident in Denmark. The story appears
on a union publication website and uses 3-D animation to recreate the
experience of a worker who fell 35 feet through a ceiling.

The thrilling thing to me is that 3-D, audio, video, and still
photography all are brought together to both advance the narrative and
make an important point about worker safety. Rob Curley calls it one of
the most interesting examples of new media storytelling he has ever
seen.
