Short profile
Georg Struck teaches as a professor of 'Digital Storytelling' to guide students of the Master's programme 'Leadership in the Creative Industries' in the development of transmedial story worlds. "My dream of time travel with the holodeck has previously taken me across industries and media genres, as a writer and director for feature films, series, games and augmented reality experiences, most recently mostly for museums, and almost always for children or young people," he says of his previous experiences.
