sameAs

We're back with our first sameAs of 2012 this month, exploring the ancient art of storytelling, and how it manifests in our increasingly digital lives.

We have an all-star line-up for the night, including leading science communicators, professional storytellers, and data visualisation experts. Join us for an evening chock-full of their favourite anecdotes, insights and perspectives, highlighting how this month's topic affects those in the sciences, arts, and media.

For this month's sameAs, we're thrilled to welcome the following storytellers:

• Ed Yong

  Science writer and creator of Not Exactly Rocket Science, Collator of nature's hungriest things

• Irene Ros (Bocoup) and Alex Graul (The Guardian)

  Experts in data-driven storytelling, from the newsroom to open source design.

• Tassos Stevens

  Master of play and Director at Coney, Playwright and Performer … and occasionally Jimmy Stewart

All are welcome, admission free. Let us know you're coming on our Lanyrd page and be sure to check out photos from previous events.
