Connecting07: Connecting The Play of Improv with The Work of Ethnographic Research
By Steve Portigal at 5:55 pm, Monday October 22 2007

Here’s the presentation (with matched audio) from last week’s IDSA/ICSID conference.

Update: the synced audio is not working, but you can play the audio here:

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

We spent about 1/3 of the time doing improv games (which may be “you had to be there”) and about 1/3 in discussion (in which the audio favors me over the audience), but maybe you can skip past some of those parts.
