Tribeca Hacks is an international series of intensive workshops that brings together content creators and technology specialists to increase understanding and broaden participation in the field of interactive storytelling.

Tribeca Hacks <Hypersensitive> will be the first event in Israel and will explore sensitivity in the digital age.

Many claim that overgrowing use of digital technologies can possibly alienate people and that computer-mediated communication has the risk of making us more indifferent to each other's feelings. Connectivity might have transformed our awareness to social issues worldwide, but the information overload that came with it can result in leaving viewers numb. 

Over the course of 72 hours, storytellers—whether they are traditional filmmakers, journalists or artists, but whose work revolve around story—designers and technologists will work together to emphasis the ideas of increased sensitivity using techniques of interactive storytelling. The teams will investigate how interactive digital technologies can be used to increase our sensitivity toward the other and toward our cultural, physical and global environment.

 

The Tribeca Hacks results will be presented at the festival's closing night, for fharther details click HERE.
