TED Speaker Bio
"Chris Milk first gained renown as a director, creating game-changing music videos for U2, Arcade Fire and Kanye West, and contributing to A Mother's Promise, a short documentary that introduced Barack Obama at the 2008 Democratic National Convention... Seeking to discover 'what comes after cinema as the gold standard for storytelling,' Milk turned to cross-media storytelling on a variety of platforms. His groundbreaking work The Johnny Cash Project, with Aaron Koblin, uses crowdsourced artwork to create an ever-evolving music video of Cash's final release. Milk's live-action VR film 'Hello, Again' allows fans to view a Beck performance from unlimited vantage points. 'Evolution of Verse,' Milk's latest VR film, premiered at Sundance 2015." – Source: TED
