How to make a successful podcast? In this exclusive masterclass, Tim Howard will take you through the production process of Reply All's successful storytelling.

 

On Thursday, September 25, more than two hundred employees from various botanical gardens in the Netherlands travelled to the National day of the Botanical Gardens in Utrecht. Together with Waag, these employees are investigating new strategic ideas for the gardens of tomorrow. What will botanical gardens mean for the generations of the future? What can they do for our future society? How can they reach new audiences or broaden existing ones? Which stories do visitors want to hear? And which format is most suitable to tell those stories?

 

For the project "Register of Yesterday" we made seven media cabinets in 2010 that were used during the project at libraries in the personal storytelling process. The design object contains a small computer, keyboard, display, microphone and a document scanner.

 

The Dutch society of botanical gardens (NVBT) has submitted the 'twitter tree', developed by Waag, as an exemplary dsign project.

 

On Thursday 29 August, a second laboratory day took place in our project 'Plants for the future' with the botanical gardens of The Netherlands. Again, employees of several gardens gathered at the Von Gimborn Arboretum in Doorn.

The Storytable was a piece of furniture specifically designed for one to six elderly persons. With only two buttons, users can activate historical features and view them on integrated screens.

 

After more than five years since the original Storytable was developed, it was time to move ahead with a new innovative version.
