http://dochorsetales.blogspot.com/2011/01/making-good-stories.html
On the interplay of word, image, and social justice. Wednesday, January 5, 2011. In twenty days,. I’ll be innovating a course at the University of Maryland. Called Good Stories: Teaching Narratives for Peace and Justice, perhaps the culmination of my forty-odd years as a professional educator.

The work of civilization and consciousness, to me, me...

Doc Horse Tales: Destiny. Is it crushing or joyful?
http://dochorsetales.blogspot.com/2014/09/destiny-is-it-crushing-or-joyful.html
On the interplay of word, image, and social justice. Saturday, September 6, 2014. Destiny. Is it crushing or joyful? In a way, that’s the same question blasted out by the Baba Yaga to the traveler in quest of the beloved: “Are you here because you wanna be or because ya haf’t’be? 8221; While anyone awake vibrates in the question of destiny, the devil and other merchandisers specialize in sleeping spells, addictive sells, seductive lies, religious shells, workaholic half-truths, and. For elaborating on wh...

Doc Horse Tales: A Storytelling Age: Information butand Quantum?
http://dochorsetales.blogspot.com/2014/09/a-storytelling-age-information-butand.html
On the interplay of word, image, and social justice. Saturday, September 13, 2014. A Storytelling Age: Information butand Quantum? Overall, I like the message of the four-minute video “. Wisdom in the Age of Information. But—you knew there was going to be a “but” didn’t you, or there wouldn’t be a blog. No one,. No story, says it all. My reaction comes in my sense that situating wisdom atop a ladder with information as the base is missing something. Discovery: uncertainty and indeterminacy. For example, ...

Doc Horse Tales: More Authentic Identity with Digital Media Production
http://dochorsetales.blogspot.com/2013/02/more-authentic-identity-with-digital.html

The first major assignment in our course (Good Stories: Teaching Narratives for Peace and Justice) involves making a digital media production on our individual identity.

Doc Horse Tales: On Destiny and Consciousness
http://dochorsetales.blogspot.com/2014/11/on-destiny-and-consciousness.html
On the interplay of word, image, and social justice. Sunday, November 23, 2014. On Destiny and Consciousness. As we tell Good Stories, the word DESTINY spells out somewhat uniquely. For each person, but still I wonder how many of us hear it coming down as if from the on-high pulpit in the gloom-&-doom preacher-voice, dark in the final judgment on those coming up short.
