I am presently doing research on Digital Storytelling applying Kress
(Literacy in the new media age, 2003) and Kress & van Leeuwen
(multimodal discource, 2001) in combination with Vygotsky's
"Imagination & Creativity". Thinking of presenting a paper at AERA...

Multimodality is about making meaning with a diversity of
communicative modes: language, image, music, sound, texture and
gesture -- how they differ and how they can be combined. Kress says:
"the world told is a different world than the world shown"...
